To Kill

But deep down


buried below


the judicious flourishes


you liberally dispense


there is


that fascination


with the cat's


studied approach


to his prey


his coiled


serpentine passion


his lethal spring,


feline teeth--


glistening studded


jewels


in the  side


of a bloody


bird's neck.


You are


only one step behind,


could it be


blood feeds


the life of


your mind?

Behind the Gates: Behind the Gates: A 1990s Hollywood Romantic Suspens by Lisa Maliga

The higher you go into the hills, the deeper the secrets... A seemingly innocent piece of mail shatters the illusion of Beverly Hills luxury, forcing a terrifying statement from a powerful action movie mogul: "they can't kill us fast enough."
