This is what results in my getting dumped.
Guilt writhes in your gut like a serpent with a secret.
A low hiss from between long fangs tells all the things he can't.
Slithering around my spine, crunching bones until there is only dust.
He will sweep the mess out the door and fall into a dreamless sleep.
