Untitled Dark Poem #16

Blooded
eyes glitter
rage beneath hooded lids
sneer
ravages beautiful face
stand aside
time has come 
the piper must pay 
for his disobedience.
He danced through the streets
leading all astray
the only rats 
the ones he dropped off
to help his career.
He tripped
trilled
danced with the devil
while she,
she stalked through the shadows
her eyes never leaving 
the back of the man who would feel her knife.
He thought he was invincible
he thought there would be no repercussions
he thought that she had no power
he deluded himself
and those around 
for she was going to get to him
it only depended on the when.
He sat brooding before the fire
doors locked
windows bolted
guards upon the gates
there was no way 
none at all
that she would find him.
The snick of the blade opening
hidden by the crackle of the fire
padding forward upon tender feet
sidling up to the chair
she hissed 
psssssssssssstttttttttttttttttttttt
and when he turned
buried the blade deep in his eye
up thrust
into the brain
and with that the piper paid.

When A…..

Woman knows a little bit of a lot of things she becomes dangerous.

Not to herself but to the people trying to play games with her.

Beware the woman who smiles pleasantly and bends over backwards to acommodate you.

Don’t fuck with her on that tightrope because you will lose.
