Revenge


Stay tuned for murder!
Televised turmoil.
Could I perhaps amend the injustice,
am I going to bleed? Should I?

Were you there,too?
Did you witness the blood
of the silent cur with cuffs,
flanked by the stars of our disease--
protecting the most unprotected?

The Ruby shining and spitting
while stalwart Texans slept
in shameful ignorance,
eyes wide, but much too late.

Hazy white plumes dissolving
When the deed was done.
Chaotic blasts splattering on brick--
screaming this will be yours,
so unforgivable. . . and forever more.

Two for the dog, justifying
two ripped through the head
of the handsome young king,
He too, no chance . . .
so unaware.

Two fated-- sliced and scattered,
in the perfectl sixties.
Surely pieces to the hideous puzzle
you and I can sort forever,
left behind for optional bickering.
