Poisoned
-poisoned-
Taking,
Quick rapid
Unmonitored
Pants..and a
Heave….
Then
A smile and
A raise of clear glass
Of a fairly cold
Quenching water…
The throat
Cools,
Another
Heave….
With a weird roll of the tongue
The taste
Slicing, cutting, paralyzing the thirsty mouth,
The heart,
Beats faster,
And beats faster
And faster than before…
The body
quivers
And trembles
And violently rolls
-submission-
The body
Falls
The glass
Crushes…
Silence…
