Consumed

consumed

sitting 
                     in the quagmire of her self contempt 
                     a flame ignites beneath 
                     the blackened caldron 

like 
                      a frog 
                      set to cook in a pot of tepid water

she
                      was clueless 
                      she was being devoured 
                      from the inside out
