Drowning

The water is at your neck
My words around your throat
Dragging you into an abyss
A sucking black vortex of sympathy and blame

The water is in your lungs
You're choking on rhetoric
I'm gagging from the stench
One foot on the high moral ground, the other on your head

The water runs from my eyes
I just want you to see things my way
But it's dark
And the sun isn't rising any time soon

Metaphors that hide little.

Directness.

Excellence.

Hopefully this site isn't a microcosm for the wide world, because so far everything has a nightmare viewpoint on things. Which is accurate, I guess.
