I sit here

Next to a person

Who commits a life scaring accident



The purple sky

And the crayola colored sunset

Colors the scene



The birds flock wildly to the nest

Presiding over what’s about to happen

The process of being scared for life



The one as the murderer

Seen with a small aluminum object

Approaches a “goon” as the homies say



The goon is just looking for someone

To chill

With, but the murderer doesn’t know



He’s strapped,

The heat pounds down on this scene

Into the sweaty palm of his hand

This inspired me when someone was innocently killed, such as 9/11.
