The First Kill by Mr. Wizard
Dedicated to EskWIRED in the style of James Dickey
All Rights Reserved


Killing the first is timeless
Beauty of a fall day
Blue sky goes on forever
Brilliant sunshine and chilly wind
My Dads old Tree Stand for a blind
A nice Buck may fall today


Mid morning a Feral Hog sniffing
Apples and corn sacrifice


Wandering as a blind man
Intent on an apple nearby
Tough old ******* thinking of treasure
A Broadhead Arrow awakens
The world swirls with numb panic


Squealing and running through brambles
Tip dragging the ground catching, twisting


Fly, fly the wounded beast
Blood trail and panic
Jobs must be finished
My Bow and Arrows
Machete' and knife


Hacking the grapevine and brambles
My Machete' sings its song


Turning the tables he charges
The first swing a good one
Between the eyes sinking deeply
Time stopping for a moment
The sun the wind the cold sweat


Like an ancient tale
The blade in the stone is frozen


Rising again he charges
Crowned with the blade
Life pouring out as he charges
His arrow coming before him
Hell and the Devil himself


Scrambling now defending
Only a few feet away


Tripping he now towers over
A full head of steam
The terror is mine as well
the arrow before is betraying now
catching and stopping the beast


Legs pumping to get upright again
The horror the sunshine the wind


The reflex of cave dwelling ancestors
The flint is lying nearby and the cat now catching
Springing strikes at the jugular
Blood spews in crimson arcs for a dozen feet
Thrashing the surrounding brush and the cat


His struggling lessened
I succumbed to my exhaustion


A cat no longer I fell to my knees.
Only a couple of feet separating us
Looking into each others eyes
Communication on a primal level
Clear and distinct as my Fathers voice


The struggle and its implications
Illuminated to all concerned


He was the one more experienced
He had bitten the life out of other living beings
Filling his mouth with their still beating hearts
Tasting the warm blood as it still held life
The sanctity I now know and venerate


He lived for the thrill of it
Now I do

I'm surprised this is your first encounter with Mr. Wilson.

Perhaps if I use Mr., he will shut up.

Ah, the sub-literate, drooling cretin who thought it would be a good
idea for someone to commit suicide, and even went to the trouble to
post about it. Do we need to re-post your kind, humanitarian comments
every time you stumble in here?

Dude, when you gotta go, you gotta go. Good luck.

Just so folks don't forget your heartwarming humanitarian response to
a fellow human being's suicide note.
