Your constant barrage of hateful taunts turned my once loving heart to stone. My confusion and guilt be damned. If you were burning, I wouldn’t piss on you to put out the fire.

Now that was said with feeling!
Great take on the prompt.

Powerful emotions in this. “My confusion and guilt be damned” – perfect! I know this isn’t supposed to be funny but the refusing to piss on the fire kinda cracked me up. Yeah, I’m not right!

Wow – such vehemence! In a way, the piece itself is the opposite of stone: very volatile. Nicely done!
