Blind Faith

Three wronged
Knives drawn
Cut someone
Deep

Must choose
Gun drawn
Sights trained
Squeeze...

Shot fired
Target hit
Bulb smashed
Mistake

Dark room
Target quiet
Guilt grips
To me

Breathe hard
Step forward
Pain erupts
beneath

Glass shards
Dig hard
Crunch into
My feet

I enjoyed how this commenced and concluded with imagery of the cutting of flesh, yet the actual substance of the piece had the basis of another emotion and method of violence.

Ahem - sorry - still in my "work dialogue" while I wrote this.

Wait for the body to stop moving before you make up your mind its not aa vampire. You never know, may need a couple extra shots in the head.

Very abrupt and direct phrasing, makes me think of a song with an angular and dissonant backbeat. I like.
