SCREAMER, SHE

She screamed a high animal yelp,
it cracked open the opaque
square transom.

I refused to offer her help until
her fiendish friends delivered
the full and final ransom.

Our past wasn't so checkered
as it was beleagured and
double-deckered,
a confused bullshit melange
of two unfit home wreckers.

I, at last unfettered, had now done
what was needed.

For years and bleary months she'd
ignored my pleas to come clean,
she'd left me unheeded.

Now her strident cries eased
this inner sadist, frankly
it felt pleasing as I smiled
widely---

a revengeful greedy fool
dying to deposit oodles of
green well earned moola!
