stay clear

sometimes you can
see the aura, feel
the black
cloud around
a person's
soul.
evil being heavy.
a stone
rolled before
the cave.
each word full
of ashes.
each glare, full
of fire.
they don't
want anything
less than revenge.
two eyes for
an eye. a heart
for a paper cut.
their nails
grow long before
you, their teeth
are wet with blood,
wanting more.
stay clear.
