I'm new to this, so be kind. ( or don't, whatever)
but I figured a poem deserves a poem..

It was such an old fashioned deal
An act of affection, I’m told.
No time for any weapons,
Or blunt instruments to be found

An attack of the most personal kind
With hands tightly around my neck
Fingers pressing in to my windpipe
Blocking the vital air supply.

Before I knew what was going on
My world began to grow dark
And suddenly the only thing that mattered
Was to fight back
Retaliate
Make right.

So I beat and I scratched
But all to no avail
My lungs screamed for another breath
And a voice from the back said
I told you I’d get you in the end

But at least when they found me
slumped over the steering wheel
All they had to do
Was scrape under my nails
And match the DNA.

EATING POETRY said...

Who would of thought that "repition" would have created such wonderful poetry!

Inconsequential said...

Ooh, I wouldn't have said repetition, after all a hack is definately not a slash :)

but it was kinda fun to do...the words not the actions...
