Thrust and Twist

Posted May 6th, 2008 by David Gibbs

My hand round his face
Pulling back to bare his throat
I thrust the knife in
I twist it a bit harder
Peace when the windpipe is cut.

AAAAAHHHHH!

I think it was through reading some of your recent darker writes that inspired me to write something a little dark as well!
Thanks for reading and commenting,

you had a violent bone in your body! This must be a dream image or something!

Your create a strong image - maybe you're so mad at the tanka that you are actually killing it! Your category could be read that way, if you stretch it a bit!
