The Robbery

Anthony Hanible

A good sunny day 

At gun point 

On my knees 

Smiling but in tears 

Unusual 

Taking 

My heart 

Blowing 

My brain away 

Laying a trap

Setting 

Me up

For years 

Screaming in the bedroom 

I dug a grave out back 

Deeply 

Without emotions

    Wow! deeply dark. The use of short lines like broken thought tell the tale. In a few words the image is cast. A fave
