Shot

My assailen's pit of fury travels from his heart to mine
In a flash of magma and a hurricane of chemical smoke.

Hit with a boiling sledgehammer,
My chest explodes in a raging pain.

Molten lead burns inside me,
Scorching my vital components as it goes.

The bullet erupts from inside my goosedown jacket,
A carnival of feathers and visceral fluids.

Like confetti, they sprinkle to the ground;
A celebration to my life which has come to a close.
