She Couldn'T Undo

What srubs a soap rub with panache And stops cleansing acts that won't wash? For Lady Macbeth Having planned Duncan's death Great guilt hands her plans the kibosh (Another classic example of undoing is the cheating husband who comes home with flowers for his wife after the fact. It doesn't wash off)

This was way back in time, and I see I was not responding to comments well during that period. I was very busy with work and not such a good citizen at this site....I have more time for reading and responding going forward while I am healthy enough and have a working brain.

DUke yes this is a bit over my head as well.What are srubs? However, I do know the story of Lady Macbeth, so I can very well guess your meaning here. Let me go see some other of your work and of course, this one has to do with "shame"!! LUv, Andrea
