peripheral moment
may came after
someone you thought
you knew turns
against you omen portent
sense shock stiletto knifes
sharp betrayal struck
spleen tempered severs
if you have known this
person loyal an entire life
had he she a lover been
had he she a friend been
then dimensions quake
realities unhinge structured
landscapes split transformed
