What I Want

Martha

 

            I was born in 1942.

            I was murdered in 1958.

            It’s been far too long,

            since I’ve felt so alive.

            I will get revenge.

                        I need it.

                                    I cannot

leave

            without it.

           

            Revenge

                        It could be easy.

But I was stuck.

            in the

emptiness that was my home.

 

That is untilSienacame along.

She was the perfect host.

 

           

            Kevin

                        is what I want first.

I take her grandmother’s car

and drive to the school.

 

            Then

                        I

                               wait.
