Friendship,
Long although remote,
Torn within seconds.
Hurt from a casual comment.
...
A family's grief shattered by realisations,
Their dead mother's skin shed to reveal her true identity.
Justice with her scales, children the weights,
Rising and falling they strove for her approval.

Friendship,
Long although remote,
Torn within seconds.
Hurt from a casual comment.
For innocent parties,
Not for me
A line crossed.
No return.
Your message disgusts
Then life moves on.
For you,
Not for me
Sickness remains,
Photographs trashed,
Gifts discarded.
Your wife's pride obvious
Through posts and pictures,
I can't comment.
Friendship destroyed.
This is over now,
For me.
