Sense Sonnet - Chiller

 A Bloody Mess

Ex hubby was a nasty jerk.

Restraining order had to get

To keep him from my home and work.

Dangerous when he was upset.

I do not like guns so I bought

An expensive Samurai sword,

Protection and investment sought,

A useful art I could afford.

And sure enough showed up guess who?

Both drunk and armed he came at me.

So I did what I had to do,

Swung sword, and lost his head did he.

I got a mop and bucket for

All of his blood on my wood floor.
