it's funny how much damage
a .338 Lapua Magnum can cause
to the person wielding the
weapon of death.
the pain sliced through me
quick, merciless
and death came slowly.
PERRIE GRAM, the plaque
on my desk
mocked me:
ACCOUNTS CLERK.
by night, my name card read
ASSASSIN FOR HIRE
although between the lines
****** SUBMISSIVE
PART-TIME LOVER
GRIM REAPER
hovered in silence.
hundreds have died
by the barrel of my gun:
politicians, mob bosses
past lovers, business competitors
but your thirst for blood
and revenge
still blinds you.
"I love you," you tell me
but the absence of
feeling in those three words
troubles me so.
tell me: why am I still
not good enough?
