You rest
on the stairs
head thrown back onto outstretched arm
And if I hadn't killed you myself,
hadn't stepped in the blood that fills your shoes
and sops your hem...
Well, if I hadn't we wouldn't be here
like this now, would we?
And so I sit alongside you
Gazing up at the ceiling with eyes as alive
as yours are dead
and I wonder
who shall fill my shoes when it's my turn
to rest?
