She sent the knife in, and he screamed horrendous at his pierced eye, optic jelly squelching down his cheek, his shackled hands clawed and feet writhing
She twisted the knife amidst howls and said, "Now you shall see the torments I have planned."

When Andi arrived home as they were about to unlock their door, they noticed a broken window to the living room. Had someone made their way inside, or was it the work of vandals? Peering inside, they saw someone watching them.

The second of the two I wrote this week for #poemsabout #undressed. I believe it also incorporates a #horrorprompt from earlier this week of #silentrage, if I'm not mistaken.

searing the unhealed wounds
sinuate into the bitter taste of scars
dissolves the modesty of confidence,

Brokenglass littered the carpet. All of the furniture was upturned, drawers emptied, mattress slashed, door off its hinges. But the glass didn't come from the window. It came from the painting at the far wall. Something had burst into the room...from INSIDE the painting.

Take a walk on broken glass
I don't care who you are
Too much of that, sanity won't last
Walk quickly
Pain is intense
Walk slowly
Makes no sense
Prolonging the torture
Maybe that's your pleasure
But don't forget
He's right there and you
Are his treasure

Jim had been in one of his moods; all evening he’d given Laura a hard time, his words cruel and needling. In a fit of anger, he hurled a bottle of whisky at the wall.
Later, when he unwittingly walked across the broken glass, yelping in pain, Laura smiled.
