An honourable sister aggrieved by a most
uncouth slur - an insult so demeaning and
dark it needs be deemed a most Heinous
Sin - of the like people decline to hear - or
hesitate whispering about; deeds so base
as hurling undeserved insults at a sibling’s
impeccable character & sweet disposition,
a gentle-voiced, caring, long-suffering soul
with infinite fortitude, & enduring empathy
with all things alive - OH, HOW could I - in
a moment of rakish foolishness, insult this
most adorable sister of mine?
How to make amends when my cellphone
number is blocked, how to beg forgiveness
publicly from her austere person, how to self-
flagellate to a degree where her punctilious
judgement of such peasant behaviour will be
overcome - until the most amazing reprieve
replaces the justified wrath burning in her
sore-tried, deeply hurt, brimming heart?
