Baby’s Breath

Baby's Breath - Otep[00:00:00]

The soft sound of snow crunching[00:00:07]

Underfoot gives me comfort [00:00:10]

Her building is at the end of the block [00:00:16]

She lives on the north side [00:00:21]

Bottom floor Middle apartment [00:00:24]

I see her: 1 2 3 4 5 steps [00:00:29]

Wrong key Lock clicks She drops her[00:00:36]

Coat and scarf in the entry and[00:00:44]

Kicks off those vixen shoes [00:00:48]

She shuffles to the kitchen and pours[00:00:52]

A glass of scotch (I am inside)[00:00:54]

She lights a cigarette and blows[00:01:04]

The smoke over the match (She doesn't notice)[00:01:06]

The gray smog rises from her[00:01:14]

Lips like a cremation furnace [00:01:16]

The simple elegance of this quiet[00:01:24]

Moment is almost irresistible [00:01:27]

(But I wait)[00:01:33]

She slugs back the scotch [00:01:37]

Finishes her smoke and ashes it[00:01:40]

In the sink She unties her hair[00:01:43]

And enters the hallway past the[00:01:49]

Childless bedroom with the empty[00:01:53]

Crib past the altar coated in wax[00:01:55]

Like a wedding cake and the tiny[00:02:01]

Packages of meat dead flowers [00:02:06]

And baby's breath [00:02:12]

She enters the bathroom where[00:02:15]

She undresses She sits on the[00:02:19]

Edge of the bath Her body[00:02:24]

Folded in half heavy tits hanging[00:02:28]

Like mushy stalactites over her[00:02:35]

Lap (Oh precious) She closes her[00:02:37]

Eyes and holds her head as if it[00:02:44]

Might float away [00:02:48]

For a moment my thoughts drift[00:02:53]

Again this time to the hammer[00:02:56]

I am holding The handle is[00:03:00]

Smooth as bone the forged steel[00:03:05]

Head is heavy and I feel powerful [00:03:09]

She reaches for the faucet[00:03:19]

And I snap back to the moment [00:03:21]

Bubbles brim the edge of the[00:03:24]

Tub Her fingers check the water[00:03:26]

Temperature and I am ready [00:03:30]

I move behind her She doesn't[00:03:37]

Hear I swing the hammer She[00:03:40]

Doesn't see I crack her skull [00:03:45]

She's in the tub Face down I am[00:03:50]

Drowning her mashing her head[00:03:58]

To the bottom knifing the claw of[00:04:01]

The hammer into her spine and[00:04:04]

Ribs over and over and over and[00:04:06]

Over and over and over and over[00:04:11]

And over and [00:04:17]

Her body stops pretending to[00:04:25]

Care and surrenders as it is supposed[00:04:27]

To just to be sure I press[00:04:33]

Hard keeping her head beneath[00:04:41]

The bloody water a few moments[00:04:45]

More Her neck snaps her nose[00:04:48]

Breaks and her face collapses[00:04:55]

Against the bottom of the tub I[00:05:00]

See my reflection in the mirror[00:05:07]

And soapy foam has formed a half[00:05:11]

Smile over the black nylon mask I[00:05:14]

Am wearing[00:05:18]

I lean to her The water glistens[00:05:24]

Like glass I hover over the[00:05:30]

Surface soft breath causing tiny[00:05:38]

Quakes and whisper "I have done[00:05:43]

To you what nature has done to me "[00:05:51]

She doesn't reply [00:06:05]

I stand and turn off the light [00:06:12]

The room is dark and empty [00:06:23]

Just like I am now[00:06:29]
