Carefully constructed, camouflaged criticism compliments, consuming,
Like hot water,
Enticingly embracing, entirely,
Me in warmth,
Slowly, sneakily siphoning,
All my hydration,
Mistaken mentalities make,
For broken generations.

-D.O.

This poem is a shout-out to dismallove for the revival of alluring alliteration.
And also to pluviophiliac for always encouraging the bending and breaking of words by use of thesaurus. Let me know what you guys think of the craft and the message, or if you have a question, I'm wide open!
