Cash Cad

killing time is absolutely necessary
like fire in water
like killing the kid who begged you for justice
killing time is honorable
like how the paint fades
like driving over it
killing time is infectious
like blood on the car door
like a burl on a tree in the chemical dump
killing          is
like you like the sound of it
like the tick
killing
