leopards and zebras

a zebra doesn't change it's
stripes.

a leopard doesn't lose it's spots.

etc. etc.
she says,

these people, wagging her finger,
are sick.

but it's not like they have the measles
or the mumps
and can
get over it.

no. lying is who they are.
cheating.
betrayal. confusion.
utter lack of morals.
there's never a sincere apology
for all the wrongs
they do.

wolves in sheep's clothing.

they are rotten to the core.
this is who they are.
they can't be helped or changed.

so my advice to you, young man
is to shove
her out the door.
