A Smoking Gun

 






A Smoking Gun


A body lay on the darkest street

as yet undiscovered.

His own gun lay by his head.


He hadn’t planned to come today.

He wanted to surprise her.

A body lay on the darkest street.


He locked her in for her own good.

Showed her where the gun lay.

His own gun now by his head.


He was jealous, he was proud

and he had a temper.

A body lay on the darkest street.


He showed her where he kept the gun

for her own protection.

His own gun, now by his head.


She heard someone breaking in.

She did what he had told her.

A body lay on the darkest street.

How did the gun end up by his head?
