DECIDEDLY DODGY

(25.03.97)

Brandishing a long knife
She lunged at me
Thrusting forward
Severing my flesh.

I screamed
As blood poured from my wound
Staining the carpet
Forming a pool.

Yet she did not relent
Again and again
Plunging forth
Puncturing my organs.

Collapsed in a heap
Struggling for breath
As blankness arrives
With the comfort of death.

this reminds me of the Folger's heiress who was stabbed to death by the Manson Family...she kept asking the girl who was killing her, "Why are you stabbing me? I'm already dead."
