Who struck me down
I did not
Know.
His brutish hand drawing nearer to me
I could not
Feel.
I did not
See.
He came ever closer to me,
But I inhaled a peaceful and lightly perfumed
Summer day, and
I did not
Smell his
Sweat drenched fist
Hurtling through the delightful mist of
The odiferous summer air.
If I had been alarmed,
If I had only
Known,
Felt,
Seen,
Or Smelled,
Would I have walked away
Unharmed?
I did not
Know.
