she knew enough from her sister’s words
that this was the creature she sought.
the blondish-auburn hair, blue eyes,
and infectious laugh were
all the clues she’d needed to
identify the murderer.
she pulled him off the terrace and
back into the small den
as the sun’s golden rays first
kissed the cement bench with
their warmth, saving his life
so that she may take it herself.
