honor for the elder;
honor lost to law and lines on contracts
and facts.
an attic scent like damp wood and dusty boxes of pictures; things to help her remember who she is.
despite her demeanor (she claws at the strangers),
she is adorable. and scared.
left here unprepared,
she waits by the door;
waiting to be honored or be spared.~
