Blue Queen's Sacrifice
By William Semo

The rain tastes like copper on Michigan Avenue.
My old badge rests in a velvet box.
I remember when the world was only two colors.
Then he showed me the smoke between them.

My partner had a way of wearing the fog.
He spoke of truth like a discarded glove.
I learned to walk where the law grows thin.
Now the blue air feels like a second skin.
I am no longer the girl with the steady hand.

A man named Kaine pulls the silver wire.
He thinks he found a puppet in the dark.
He wants to wake the thing I put to sleep.
But some promises are too heavy to keep.
The city is a stage for a grand mistake.

Is the beast a stranger at my door?
Or the face I see when the rain stops?
I hunted the wild until I grew claws.
The silence is the only law I follow now.
The only law.

So let the curtain rise on the final act.
I will embrace the weight of my own design.
Kaine will find the monster is quite divine.
There is no grace in a world this blue.
I am exactly what the city made of me.
