Moon on the rear view mirror (assassin)
=====================================
Moon on the rear view mirror
Chasing the assassin’s speeding
Chariot. Adjust the glass-view,
Close your eyes for a while, still the
Moon is just behind your car.
An expert agent, moon shadowing
The assassin, still dipping in
Deaths of innocents, unawares.
Take a turn and fancy loosing
Him behind till his sarcastic
Grin illuminates the mirror.
The assassin moves to mop brow
He thinks of the screams rising from
The arson in a slam, he thinks
The shouting smells of burnt bodies.
Hands do not quiver on steering,
Only moon on a steady chase
And fog spreads on the obscure path.

A scream so secret, like a drop of dew
On a pool of oblivion, rises
From the deep throat of a crime not so old.
                  *

clever talks delay friendship!

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this piece.  Wonderful images throughout the poem.

I'd rather be happy any day than be right

Catching my breath, dear Ku!!!

Incredibly powerful write with remarkable poetic heights, such as this:

A scream so secret, like a drop of dew
On a pool of oblivion ...


I was waiting for you.

Love,
Margherita
