 Flick Knife Sunday 

The afternoon heat was lancing the skin off the walls  
Making lizard ridges humping the horizon with scattered day dreams  
Last night’s Chinese food stuck to the seat – buttered MSG dripping with sorrow  
His skull ripped back like a shredded roach  
The dust of time – celestial jewels of hope  
Sprayed with anger she wept : the badge of a lover’s guilt  
With broiled fear and the simmering beat of Summer’s kiss she covered his face in a filthy blanket . 
The last sound – a muffled scream – amplified cruelty  and cotton wads jammed into saliva pockets 
Noosed with  a chainsaw memory forever yoked to her soul .
