Vortex by Sara K. Penrod Saturday, December 30, 2006 Rated "PG" by the Author. Share Print Save Become a Fan
Vortex Sink or swim, baby girl, and you better figure it out quick�that whirlpool pulls you closer and closer now and you know the water�s too deep for you to touch the muddy bottom. No one�s going to take care of you anymore. You�re too big for that. Get used to it. Soon, the fatigue will give birth to burning in your body your thrashing arms and legs and tightened stomach and eventually subside again to exhaustion.
