Alexandra Dark

The Knife’s Friend

Knives glint in the
Moonlight, 
A man polishes his
Collection to perfection. 
Creaking ceased his busy hands,
And a young woman
Enters the room of her own
Volition. 
He bows,
Welcoming her to his 
Wondrous abode. 
Introductions to his 
Three favorite
Friends
Ensue, 
Them shimmering in the light.
They cut through the girl’s
Skin 
By accident, 
And he comforts her
By consuming her
Blood.
