"I was the meanest lion with curls around my head and the sharpest fingernails. I was the meanest lion, but I was nice to you, huh? I was nice to you..." Her voice trails off. Tiny tugboats push her eyelids ashore.
You - who could paw my heart into a thousand purple pieces. You - who could swallow me whole into the gaping abyss of your mouthsoul. You - who holds me your terrified helpless cowering pleading prey...thank you. For being nice. To me.
