Razor Burn

Folder: 
Other Dedications

When you rub me the wrong way,  

I snap back with my own dose

Of well-placed verbal pain-

Blunt enough to come off

As complimentary but

Cutting below the surface.



Days later, a rash appears

Because I forgot to carefully

Harden you for what was to come-

Letting your skin become

Too sensitive to bear my blows.
