The War of the Confidant

by Anastasia Shows

Thank you,
DeeP
blue eyes
of empathy
that
freeze.
(a Russian winter
to an enemy)

Thank you,
sullen quiet
mouth
(a shotgun
which
readily jams
before an enemy)

Thank you,
kind
listening ears
(armor
to the
MOST
wounding weapons
of the enemy)

you melt down
t o g e t h e r
well into
(shakles
ball and
chain
around the ankle
that is
MINE, the prisoner of war.)
