The door starts speaking in a whine as it slides slowly open,
Then in time, hits the white rubber hind.
In the doorway is a man with a rifle in his hands,
Holding two golden bullets and a bottle full of sand.
There's a sadness in the air,
Riding softly in the gust,
Being thrust from the fan,
Into my throat then to my gut.
Bloody footprints dot the room,
As he paces with his words.
Being uttered from his rotten lips,
I hear them trail the stairs.
He says "I started as a man i've slowly turned into a toy. I've been brainwashed into thinking all this killing is a joy. Not just the deadly or destructive, i've killed innocent and constructive. Because my free speech has been left behind, I slowly lost my thinking mind. I want to change, like war has changed, I used to feel tougher. Now the rich start wars for pride and oil while poor souls seem to suffer. Still, i'm a loyal dog and I have a job, so you know I cannot stutter.
Then he pours the sand and fires his hand.
With one bullet left for another.
Sand and fire, time and
Sand and fire, time and smoke
What Eve saw when she looked back
what Adam thought about for
two thousand years before deciding
if you have what I want and I can
not get it as an individual, I will
gain enough power to send a country
over there to get it for me.
Grit and charcoal
clocks and flame.
Nice write - inside and outside
