The Age I Fear

David Hernandez

A lighter and a flask,
two key chains shown on my keys,
to show how old I am.
I don’t drink and I don’t smoke,
yet other addicts (people of my age)
want me to be like them.

I have a better use for the lighter and the flask,
to start a fire and clear out the evidence.
I spiked their drinks with poison inside the flask,
filled their bar with flammable oil,
and lit it with the lighter.

The club can be repaired;
the memory of what I did remains strong.
I was different, now I am fierce.
My own pleasure came from two items
used to kill in silence.
