Red Flag Means Go


 
Deeply ingrained
do not act on physical impulses
stay away from those who would
She had a start with a bad boy
but didn't get going
until the bad man
in the tortured good guy disguise
Impulse became ignition
running down
and
running over
not just childhood indoctrination
but adulthood inhibition
He ran roughshod over her skin
and she did not apply the brakes
