‘One more bite’
‘Hors d’oeuvres’
Kind hearts that give too much graze like lambs in light,
“Just one more smile,” they bleat, so sweet,
Till wolves in woolly sheep’s fur coats convene.
A nibble here, a nibble there,
They bare their teeth with a tender snare.
Too kind, too soft, the fence dissolves;
Vulnerable hearts become hors d’oeuvres.
So balance, kind heart,
feed with care,
Or “one more kindness” leaves you bare.
The flock that overgrazes trust
Ends up digested, chewed to dust.
Ive created this artwork in ai as medium. This work using heavy symbolism is surrealism to express kindness feeds the wolf until your heart is the feast.
This line is sharp, concise, and threads everything together:
• “Be kind, but never become the lamb.”
• “Too kind, and the wolves finish the plate.”
• “Kindness in sheep’s clothing devours the giver.”
• “Overkindness: the fastest way to be eaten alive.”
