Betrayal of course is the great human crime. As I found out when I discovered my lover was betraying me, even though I was betraying her too with another woman. The bitch. Unbelievable. You've only got to watch daytime TV to know this is absolutely true. Even though TV's something of a false mirror. But that's the point isn't it? You still can see yourself, sort of. So you know it isn't just fucking fiction anymore, it's fucking betrayal!
So long, Baby!

In the current Queen Mobs Tea House, Feb., 2015. I story's 1st. line is a much repeated phrase I use in my Ancient World Lit. class. Just thot I might try a flash piece riffing off the phrase.
Every breath a betrayal of something. We are one fucked-up species.
*Yep. I hate betrayers. Dem louses.
We're all secret narcissists. *
Betrayed, besotted, benighted, betwixt, between and begotten. Avoid be-ing. *
