Black Fedora

There's a man with a black fedora,
With a unmistakable dark aurora.
With his night like eyes and pale white skin,
He wears his hair slick, 'tashe, stylishly thin.
His trousers and jacket, and suitable pressed.
A fine gentleman you'd think by the way that he's dressed.
But take a look again, and you'll notice something new.
Miserable circles beneath his eyes, he knows what he's got to do.
From that hidden gun holder he'll pull out your fate.
Hard lump in your throat, you've just got to wait.
You've stepped in on the operation, and you can't get away.
Legs folding beneath you, you'll die this day.
And the only thing you'll remember of that night.
Was that dark fedora, that killed you with it's sight.

My Dearest

My dearest, my darling, Wakes on the floor. She gives me a look of disgust, And then starts to walk to the door. Insults are thrown, Hatred is shown.

The End

This is my death. It's obvious From the moment His thumbs press Gently into the hollows Of my throat. First there's panic; I can't shift his iron grip. I want to breathe But can't. I punch and kick.

She Is You

Pale skin and light blue eyes. Dark circles beneath from all the lies. Blonde hair so withered it's dead too. You'd never guess that she is you. Look in the mirror and you stare back.

Amalfi

The painted houses clinging to the hillside glare orange with the late-afternoon sun. It is almost impossible to look across the harbour without shielding your eyes.
