The Assassin

 

Contract of death

Select hit location

Engage target fire.

 

The victim falls

To check kill

Act as helper.

 

Jogger says Hello

Pausing for breath

I saw everything.

 

Remove tense situation

Grit replaces rage

Hold sympathetic stare.

 

Sweat soaker explains

Standing then collapsing

Clutching his chest.

 

Preventing this tragedy

There was nothing

Anyone could do.

 

It was obvious

What had happened

Fatal heart attack.

 

Stranger then turns

Shaking his head

Muttering to himself.

 

Thinking about it

What I actually

Witnessed and observed.

 

A speeding bullet

Flying past missing

Only by inches.

 

Hitting that copper

Who is lying

Dead over there.
