Mind Game by Guy Belleranti

 

He had followed her

To the small café--

Of this she was sure.

She must get away!

 

She gulped her coffee,

Ran into the night,

Heard steps behind her

And gasped out in fright.

 

She reached in her purse

And whirled around fast.

The gun in her hand

Spat out a loud blast.

 

She fired again,

But shot no one dead.

For all of her fears

Had been in her head.
