Day 6, PAD Challenge. Prompt: "Don't (blank), (blank)"
easier than you think, to bite
off the matter with a brittle
smile, regardless of how
she has been assailed, know
that her heels will grind them-
selves into the earth before
she gives way and topples,
crushing you, at the last--
beware, beware, any who
would persecute her children--the
lovely reeds swaying in the wind--may
they be bedevilled by an itch
they cannot scratch
before the maw of the earth opens up
to enclose them
