she made it
very clear
when the devil
whispered
in her ear.
"Please take this gun
and show no
fear"
as the devil
whispered
in her ear.
"I want my family
dead
so we can disappear"
because the devil
whispered
in her ear.
The boyfriend agreed
and entered her home
at the rear
when the devil
whispered
in her ear.
He shot everyone in sight
while guzzling
a beer
as the devil
whispered
in her ear
and back to the car
the boyfriend returned
with a bloody smear
because the devil
whispered
in her ear.
"You fool"
she cried
"How could you my dear"
when the devil
whispered
in her ear.
"You went to the wrong house"
she complained
with a sneer
as the devil
whispered
in her ear.
The boyfriend apologized with a smirk
and not
a tear
because the devil
whispered
in her ear.
He needed to get it right
and put her
in good cheer
when the devil
whispered
in her ear.
She drew blood
from biting his lip
in a gesture so queer
as the devil
whispered
in her ear.
So the boyfriend
found the right address
and soon the end was near
because the devil
kept whispering
in her ear.
The boyfriend tripped
and then fell
and all she could do was sneer
when the devil
whispered
in her ear.
The stray bullet
took his life
and made it his final year
as the devil
whispered
in her ear.
So she jumped
behind the wheel
and drove away from here
because the devil
whispered
in her ear.
She drove straight to hell
and fate
did not interfere
because the devil
whispered
in her ear.
