Black Poetry : Her Verse Killed Me

[blakverb]

I walked in the dark
not knowing that the
red beam was placed on my
cerebellum (or was it my
medulla Oblongata?)
She fired......
a verse,
scathing
dipped in cyanide
I tried to hide but
the reader I am
made me prone to suicide
so I read.......
arrow one punctuated with
an exclamation point
hit me / killing
a thought I had
that i wanted to share
...with her....then
she fired again.........
I heard the whistling of the
scribed bomb but instead of
running for cover...I read
slowly...the bomb...built
on nuclear tech(know)logy
detonated....left my body
standing but destroyed
my insides.......I shed a tear
that was caught by another
formaldyhyde quill tipped
scribe.....ended with a period
that sent me reeling to
the recesses of my house...
where light could not reach
and sight could not see
I was blinded by...a...antonyms,
synonyms, homonyms,
parables, phrases, adjectives,
adverbs, and verbs...I
was attacked by my kin...and
left to die with her verse
tattooed on my mind.
