A/N Written 7th November, 2019
Outcries of rage
Broken splinters flying
A desolate home
It greets her everyday
So she smiles in return
Hatred oozes from the pair
A thick miasma that penetrates the air
Bangs and shouts reverberates at night
Drunken silence rising with first light
So she smiles in their stead
Her unwavering joy
A flashlight in the dark
The moths emerge and gather
Intoxicating patterns finally able to spread
Happy that her smiles brought success
A little green goblin birthed
"How can she be so glad?"
Excreting poisonous spores
They spread their pointless whispers
She can only smile in response
