Sweet Sister Spare Some Sense

A tautogram about sibling estrangement.

Sisters slowly sliding

Sadly steadily splitting 

Separation's slippery slope

Siblings slowly separating

Slipping, slipping

Standoff, stalemate

Seemingly showing strength

---

Silence's shameful secrets

Slowly severing sisterhood

Sisters shattered, suffering silently

Suppressed sentiments suffocate

Silence stifling souls

---

Sweet sister spare some sense

Speak, speak 

Salvage sisterly solidarity

Sincerely seeking sibling's soothing song

Sweet sister say something 

Share stories, struggles, sorrows

Softly say, "speak soon, sis."
