The Destroyer
They violated their oath, to protect a lie.
Through envy, jealousy, and rage desiring one to die.
Although she has never been to a jungle or a beach, she was injected with a leech.
A slow death for one to watch, waiting for her skin to blotch.
As she gains weight and her skin begins to glow rich, they yell and call her a witch.
As she destroyed her terror, they begin to see theirs, the one they cry to and say they fear.
They cried crocodile tears and they ruined the pyramid tier, all to make one feel revenge.
Which became their dead end.
