Guilt trips are full of
slick roads, shame pumps, greasy lies
one-sided caring.

May you cease to be
manipulated by guilt
and told that it's love.

A Dart at Dusk
Seconds ago, the sullen sun set on the two of usโฆ my exuberant furry companion and me. A fresh breeze embraces us, delivering welcome relief from the dayโs oppressive heat. His typical stumbling and staggering along โ apace with a sloth โ has turned into trip-trapping, high-stepping, almost skipping along.

Ohh I luv this!
I like how you used the imagery of the road to describe a guilt trip. Thatโs really creative.
