When a real thing takes you
Past whatever
You are used to
It is everywhere around you; and whoever
Took you there
With big eyes and life
Without a care
Will be the one to dig the knife
Deep in your bone
The unseen knife that hid
Until the silver shimmered and shone
From evil that could not hold a lid
All at once, you saw
What we all see, her flaw.

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."
