Foxtails
​the chickening
Hopelessly spent
Perfectly content
Reduced to a crawl
Subservient mite
Neglected and slighted
And that serves you right

Joke’s on who?
Funny you!
A victim, I!
So victimized!

Rip out my spine
See what it’s like
Who asks twice?
Who asks nice!

Let me make this clear
I’m insincere
I won’t be tricked
Again

Pitiful little girl
Pathetic, disturbed
Disheartened, reserved
Prone to freeze whеn provoked
How fitting the trope of
Deer caught in hеadlights
Subconsciously
Lured to be
Docile and
Controlled
