Dear diary
yesterday
I killed somebody
who was allergic to dairy
gave him eggs
gave him milk
dressed him in silk
now he is laying
swimming in his own filth
so classic
so well dressed
with his solid pretty face
so placid
so static
so not symptomatic
sumptuous taste
of flower petals
red wine
and shilling wind
licking the back
of my left leg.
