Challenge
The scars you cannot see are the hardest to heal.
Just write.
Sponges.
sponges are the hardest to clean aren't they___
you lather them in soap and try to scrub away crud from dirty dishes,
and maybe you'll wring out the sponge so it doesn't get moldy
but you'll never get the water completely out.
overtime the mold will build up
and the dampness of the porcelain sink will only warrent
more growth of unwanted organisms
that make home in the pores of your plastic polymers.
and you're so busy scrubbing away at pots and pans
that when you finally realize your sponge has been eaten away
by the parasites your habits created,
you'll be left with only a limp shelter for contamination.
