Your naked body
in the mirror
a double-edged reflection
re-flecting
Two of you
(Perhaps more
the deeper I look)
One high, one low
One up and one down
one protecting me
With strong solid arms
and one i had to run from
long, dark hallways in slow-mo
one keeping me safe
As I slept every night
And
One holding the knife
and slicing
body, and my heart
warm blood oozes
Squishy in my shoe
red jelly clots
on the
dirty
carpet
