A beautiful sneer

Beautiful woman sitting with friends at a bar,

Leaning back in her chair, head tilted down, a strand of dark brown hair hanging over her face. She stares at the table with faraway eyes, the conversation raging around her. Her face is still but inside I see a sneering smile. A strange mixture of pleasure and disgust. The accepting of an ugly truth.
