another day on the job?

another day on the job?

A Poem by nigrum homonculus
"

i have never seen anyone focus on the mindset of an assassin who is a loving father. so i put myself in his shoes.

"

The beer, light and fluffy.

The sun, blazing down upon me.

This sandy beach with its oven cooked floor.

The steel in my pocket, projectiles galore.

Sunbathing and waiting. My mark is approaching.

Looks like a mix between Mario and van helsing.

An Odd combo, an even worse appearance.

His moobs are hairy, his speedos ain’t manly.

Who am I to judge, I’m wearing sandals with socks.

Should of prepared my outfit instead of downing shots.

 

Wait what? 


He has a little girl…..

No older than 5…just like mine at home.

She doesn’t know what I do

She wouldn’t be proud if she did.

Her dad, a homewrecker.

Sending another dad to meet his maker.

I don’t know the guy, all I know is a contract.

His name, his age and all his contacts.

Other than that, zero, zilch, ditto.

His wife don’t deserve to be a widow.

I better get out of here.

This mission’s aborted.

i need to look at myself

and get my head sorted.

thanks bro. i thought i write pretty much the same as other poets lol so this does mean a lot.
I've never seen such instance of poetic contrast.You nicely distinguished the dual character of an assasin.I like the middle line 'to send another dad to its maker'.Your conceptulization of emotional aspect did work firmly.keep writing.;-)
