Red-Handed

Crashes echo, echo
Echo through the whitened wood.
the intrusion
Crashes through my veins.
Thump, thump...

Salty sweat, seeping
From exhertion,
Swims over goosebumps.
I shiver.

Hands panic!
In search of the blue covers.
Taking cover has exposed us.

Reactionless expressions
Conceal mortification and disgrace
From both parties.
Our worlds hold together
As she questions us, simply
On tonight's dinner.
