You have killed me
I lay crumpled upon the oil stained
Blacktop
My heart staggers
a slow crawl
Black blood spilling
thru broken teeth
And sticky sweet
exhale of betrayal.
Caught in the swell of your deceit
Cast upon the rocks
broken into flotsam
For the receding tide.
Fate has tricked me into temptation
And with this last gasp of
Cinnamon scent
I curse her.
