Heading North

She’d been raped before Just never by proxy The birds flew south As the Greyhound bus headed north She would get it right this time Rip his heart out He would have watched her getting raped Gloated and approved That was his way He should have killed her He really should have killed her It was three in the morning When Mr proxy arrived home To a gun pointing to his head It was just business Five hundred dollar deal She was just a five hundred dollar lay He’d had better, but what the hell They both laughed As she emptied five bullets into his business department Fitting epitaph, she thought It was two days later when she caught up with him Took your time I was getting bored watching the video He really didn’t satisfy you, did he Get undressed, and I’ll show you how a real man does it You won’t be satisfying anyone ever again You’re hurt, I can see that, but did you really need to kill the guy for doing his civic duty They both laughed The birds flew south Some flew down to feast on a heart The taste was bad and the flock moved on The Greyhound bus headed north and just kept going.
