    except to those with true sight,

    which because the dragons

    By moonlight they sing of me

    Blood Bath

     

     

    The tree spoke to me. It’s leaves crackled who was peering from windows to touch and pry secrets. In my bath, leaking blood dyes the warm water to a rosé glow. The appreciation of soft delicacy ruined by the thumping door but they are too late – she is saved.
