lady vengeance

[tubgirl.jpg]

some scores are settled but remain
dusty lines drawn in silence on chalk
in reality the fictitious anti-hero we revere
is another corruption boiled too black

our bear-scissor pride
make us shy from reflections
in muted agreement the masses nod
vivid as sheets of glass plastered in anxiety
and shun Lady Vengeance

 

[Jabberwocky]

our bear scissor pride makes us shy from reflections

this line stood out to me, I think it says a lot in few words
