The following poem is about the internal impact of bullying.
Erosion
By Ginger Hinson
Word flames scorch.
The serpentine tongue
Painfully licking vulnerability.
The ego's wall thickens
Barrier's perimeter extends
To contain the internal
Seepage as it dissolves,
Eroding esteem from within
A forcefield permeates,
Covering, hiding truths,
Fending off fire's bite,
Separating from the onslaught
