Crime Scene Investigation

Red substance on the floor
Fleshy
Spatter on the walls

Dog ends in the ashtray
Deceased
Smoke pushing at the windows

Glass lying on the table
Splintered
Contents dripping off the edge

Photos torn in pieces
Ruined
Heads circling the bin

Tissues in a line up
Guilty
Run into the bedroom

Clothes missing from the wardrobe
Stolen
A single hanger left behind

Corpse found in the bathroom
Crying
A hole in her left chest
