Triolet Thursday - Triolet #22

Can't Revise Reality

Your heart, frosted, to stall the decay.
"The selfishness paints me red," she muttered.
panic sets in, surrounding me with grey
your heart, frosted, to stall the decay.
The cold only increases my dismay
fiction is easy; real life is cluttered
your heart, frosted, to stall the decay
"The selfishness paints me red," she muttered.

Thank you Pamela and Ms. Tumblewords for fantastic comments.
I hope the meaning of this triolet is clear.

I must seem nicer in print than in person.

I'm real direct.

I rarely flatter (Leos only like to flatter ourselves).

I am the person in the poetry workshop that people cringe & get nervous b4 I say anything b/c it's usually so blunt.

So yes ma'am,

I really mean it.

Not being nice.
