********************************

a hopeless

vendetta

a woefully

ill repute

salon

filled with the

worst kind of

people

who are

at the same time

the best kind of

people

because they

know what

loyalty is

they know to

stick to your

tribe

and to avenge

the fallen

always in argument

until you step inside

you don't

belong here

they all know that

at once

like bloodhounds

sniffing the air

vultures

circling carrion

they watch you

like a lion

watches a

gazelle

just before the

kill

and you hold your

head up

high

because

you need them

and if you act

like you do not

belong

then you

never will

the murmurs

run through the

crowd like

tremors

in the ground

shoulders

shaking

as tears fall

you step

towards

the middle table still

crowded

with people

though some part

like dark curtains

to let you inside

their circle

he sits in a chair

lazy posture

lounging with

diamonds

pinned onto his

lapels

"i didn't think you'd

take my offer

you seemed

smarter

than that"

"i have nothing

left

to lose"
