The Nameless Killer & Accomplice
August 25
You, you angry poison
Your heinous fingers
may choke on innocent throats and
Crush their innocent lungs
You may destroy their na�vet� from inside out
But you will only immortalise their purity
forever.
You are no different than a baby killer
A child rapist
A corrupted smile hiding a secret
You, bordering on the worst crime committed
You, and your monstrous cause
You, and the foul hands that drives yours to choke a life
They
might die innocent
But on their last breath…
You, and your murderous accessory
The both of you
You, the heartless killer, and
You, everyday household item
You, contaminated food and drink
You, sly eyed neighbour
And his entire family
You, a forced-down pill
You, bitter medicine
You, sweet expensive pesticide
You, the most unlikely of accidents
You, premeditated venom
You... you POISON and THE EVIL THAT UNCORKED you
THEY WILL CURSE YOU. I ALREADY CURSE YOU.
You will kill their blamelessness before you kill them
The once-silent souls will speak, unheard to your unlucky ears
They know
Enough
That on their very last breath they will curse you
Their bubbly froth - their spit on you
Just like all the lives you’ve claimed before
Their last curse will be shockingly beyond the capacity
Of the na�ve.
You, giver of this mysterious substance
A slow death for all of them, yes
But a damned one for you.

Note: Because of all the 'you's, I aligned this one to the left. I was needless to say, furious when I wrote this. Two of my cats were dying. In a way I was all too familiar with. I wanted so desperately to find answers, to at least know what they were up against. Words flew by in my head, all possible accusations, and I ran to my PC and wrote this.
