Scattered Feathers: Part 1

She succumbed to the venom
which sputtered as a fire from the tip of a tongue.
It was a certain weapon.
It was a special kind of loaded gun.
Why did you empty it?
Why did you use her as a bullet?
That Copy-Paste-Send button
was the pulling of the trigger,
why did you decide to use it?
Once it was sent, it was a ticking bomb,
And there was no way to defuse it.
The level of damage increased
as the more and more people viewed it.
You blew it.
