somewhere between a dream &
closing my eyes

second:
feather concrete footsteps.
tree tapping a window
warning in morse code
i n t r d r
i get the message
and dart to the blind window.
she's crouched outside
and i hear her from within my
parents room.
i am in there and alone in my
home.
she is
behind the slidedoor curtains
at night and there's a
shotgun in my pocket because
i won't have
another fist fight with an
intruder.
first:
i knocked that man out
got a high score KO
i always get high scores
for things nobody else does
like punch a burglar in the face
in the front doorway a bunch
of times until he bails
from the doorway and his mind.
10000 points.
high score.
shotgun sfx.
chk chk.
she knows it's fake
opens the door
turns the corner
i go to slug her darkness face
phone in my clenched hand
it sounds again.
this time
pow.
and she's down.
why does this happen to me.
