    Lessons Learned

    Lying in the dark
    listening to you breathe,
    plotting your demise,
    fighting off the need.

    Pictures, mementos and pieces of you
    litter my fevered brain.
    White hot rage fills my soul,
    I embrace this searing pain.

    Plunging to the hilt,
    your warmth flows through my fingers.
    My eyes stare upon your face
    as the last of your life lingers.

    I can see her,
    dancing around, drink in hand.
    My thirst for vengeance mounts,
    I'm taking this final stand!

    I have to punish her tonight
    for making this mistake.
    She used him you see,
    just to soothe an ache.

    It was she who forced my hand
    by sleeping with my man.
    Now I will end her life
    to complete my master plan.

    Hooded from the light
    my hands surround her delicate throat.
    Existence fades to black,
    her body begins to bloat.

    Celebrating victory,
    I paint my lips with blood you bled.
    A secret smile spreads across my face,
    I'm so glad you both are dead.

    WOW! That is good!

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
