Cold-Blooded Pillow (Free verse) by drnick
This whole life
I've
Been trained to leave you alive
Yet tonight
I feel
Colder than sharpened steel
You could end
My keen
Murderous motions in morphine
Stare in my
Irenic eyes
For a moment we can improvise
Light up this
Candlewick garden
That leaves killers for pardon
Inevibility arrives
I sigh
An existential lullaby
As we lay
I dream
Never to awake my criminal scheme
Never to awake...
when long overdue
Never to awake...
before you
