Don’t get it, Twister.

I’m sick to damn death of cyclones.

Fuck you, Dorothy.

Your little dog, too.

Looks like you put your faith

in a shoe-thieving witch

with an army of minions

celebrating a woman’s death.

This savior

who lives

in a pink bubble

wants you to take out

the whole family—

No, not to Denny’s

Tony Soprano would

laugh in your face

Karen Hill didn’t manipulate children, Shannon; she spoke for herself, in their presence.

Here’s a song for the barren queen of playing victim:

Once upon a time, there was a tragic princess who pretended perfection by reconstructing the past, distorting reality with a case of stolen documents. Everyone had great sympathy for the vicious victim whose time will come.

As for me, I’ll never weigh the same as a duck.

Ashes, ashes

All fall down
