Word of the Day - Cigarette

Do you know what a flavored cigarette looks like when it's burning into the palm of your hand? No?
Well, do you know what the face of a girl whose palm is being burned looks like?
I'll tell you.
It looks serene, and calm, as she stares down at the flesh melting off her hand.
It looks at ease, and relaxed, almost like this is the movies, and she watching it happen to someone else.
And then her eyes flutter closed and she collapses, and murmurs something soft, that you barely catch, only you think it sounds like, "That was beautiful."
