my neighbor
i
shot
your son
i said
to him
he
looked
at me
bewildered
then
walked about
the room aimless
i
heard
his wife
sobbing
in the
next room
have some soup
he said
after awhile
so we
both
sat
and stared
into our soup
while we ate
i`m sorry
i said
in the end
he didn`t
say
a word
as
-life must go on-
and
-there was nothing more to be said-
 
so
i
tried
to make
reconciliation
 
i
would not
have known
i
shot his son
but...
he was my neighbor
