Absent The white feathers are not a flag of truce for the cruel - TopicsExpress



          

Absent The white feathers are not a flag of truce for the cruel hand that pushed meat hooks through tender flesh. The white feathers promise no soft comfort for the nightmares of that obedient surrender. The white dress hides a dark angel in its breast for one who flinches at her request but yields nevertheless. That absent hand that played its part in this act of cruelty stays dumb. No bandages bind her wounds. And we as passive onlookers on her suffering are oblivious to the pain of the absent one.
