Assassin

by LionshadeSC

a poem i wrote for english featuring altair. the spacing was supposed to be different but i'll take what i can get. it's called a pantoum so the lines are placed where they are specifically. i thought this turned out pretty good.

Assassin

I unsheathe my hidden blade,

Gleaming like a silver sun.

My blade will be the murdering aid

In to my mouth hot dust will come

Gleaming like a silver sun

My steel gray eyes locate the target

In to my mouth hot dust will come

I know this crime I won't regret

My steel gray eyes locate the target.

An evil I must abolish

I know this crime I won't regret

This will be his dying wish.

Merging through the excited crowd

My blade will be the murdering aid

On the platform the target stands proud.

I unsheathe my hidden blade.
