Rule one:
Never trust anyone
who profits
from your silence.
Rule two:
Never apologize
for surviving differently
than they expected.
Rule three:
If they hand you
a cage,
learn its hinges.
Rule four:
Matches belong
in the hands
of women
who have already survived
being burned.
There is no rule five.
Wildfire got bored
and set the list
on fire.
