Dagger

preeti

Like rice

paper you

stick and slip

like the shears of 

my kimono arms

that once rugged you

The knife cut deep

as if it was in my heart

the moment you took the

lock keyhole thread undone

like a safety pin with 

your blade.

 

House of Flying Daggers inspired poem scene 2.
