Prologue: Victim Driver Killer Mistress
October 5, 2009
Next | LatestOne's past leaves physical traces of itself here and there - photographs, letters of promises and compromise, the scars that were left to heal - but for the most part it is just a story to remember, and one's memory is malleable. What we experience in our dying days can color the story of our childhood. The tale changes while remaining the same. Does that mean it's possible that we might never know someone until long after their story is over? And if we then find that a story is not finished when it ends, would it also not have begun at the start?
The Victim lies face up in
what used to be his blood
As he drifts away he wonders
if there's peace where he wakes up
The Driver catches his pulse when
his hand is on his brow
For what it's worth his course was true
and it's almost over now
The Killer clears the barrel
of his cold and smoking gun
Just another passing moment
while life is passing on
The Mistress walks a fine line
the sinner and the saint
If her love is true
then this just might turn out okay
