Target 2
The one happening;
which never happned.
A slice of mock invasion on inner sanctum to find your own name.
Who were you?
A mind not on the mend? A house you were not living in?
The forecast was wary of strangers.
A deadly intent was hurling
the desires onto the stones of eyes.
A fog hides the melt.
You were not ready for syntax,
a rhyme breaks into sobs.
Washed by pain, a sting
becomes the poem.

Sophie picked out a few items while Caleb followed closely behind running his eyes over every corner of the supermarket as they moved.
"Are you always like this?" Sophie asked.

"You know. Uptight. You've been looking around as though you are anticipating something bad to happen."
"Oh. No. Sorry about that. But we can never be too careful."
