a monster

that is what they called her

static screamed in her mind

her mouth frozen

her jaw was dropped

her eyes were bugged

she begged for help

but all they heard was silence

that was all they could bear to hear

she was screaming

no one cared to witness her

not at all

everything would change if they

admitted to her agony

to her rage and pain

Crazy

she must be

yes she was insane

don't listen to her

don't let her corrupt your mind

don't let her give you pause

soon she will stop

her jaw wired shut

her eyes rusted closed

her beauty restored
