A Handmaid’s Tale
A Handmaid’s Tale
The one who sews your fate.
Her whip stitch forms your spine;
Her embroidery creates your every beauty mark;
Her handpicked silk makes your skin the lavish
quality it has always been.
Yet it is expectations that stress your hems-
Your seems barely holding together your
mind and body as sanity loses its grip on the lace trim.
