A twisted tale of Karma.
Paralyzed


He sat there cool,
Confident in his game.
He knew her mind
Without knowing her name.

She looked over
Made contact with his eyes.
He took it as a sign
And organized his lies.

He walked over
And bought her a drink.
He wanted her relaxed
And unable to think.

They left arm in arm
Swaying to and fro.
His stagger was an act
She would never know.

He took her down an alley
Where he knew they couldn't be seen.
The streets were lively
None would hear her scream.

He pressed her against a wall
Kissed her and forced her legs apart.
She moaned into his mouth
And stabbed him in his heart.

The knife was razor sharp.
Her aim surgical and true.
Before he knew it
There was nothing he could do.

His legs went limp
He crumpled to the ground.
He tried to scream
But couldn't make a sound.

She knelt down beside him
And whispered in his ear,
"It will be over soon.
You have nothing to fear."

She stood and walked away
And then he recognized
His arms and legs wouldn't move
He was paralyzed.

Panic set in
He didn't want to die.
He regretted every victim
He regretted every lie.

He lay dying in the alley
He had raped many in before.
His final thoughts were little comfort.
Karma is a whore.
