Pre-med Self-Defense

Knock on the door
he comes out
he goes back in
grabs a knife
a big one
I catch it
turn around
press
don’t stab
him
over and over
I’ve been waiting
for this
for years
so
I get away
in my car
blending into
every other car.

It
might be in my head
but
I’ve got to get
him
before he gets
me
and
I will

someday.
