craven
raze when death comes to call,
he's no one i know.

he's only a man,
sturdy and still
the knife he wields
so much like my own.

i straighten my spine
and meet his eyes with
unblinking resolve.
i feel the blade
bite into me.

and at the moment
of my unmaking,
i bend his arm back
and plunge the point
into the apple
of his throat.
