Toss-Up (violence, morbidity)

by Insomnia (Amy J. Kline) - Virgo

Should I kiss you,
or should I kill you?
I'll toss a coin
in the air.

Perhaps a kiss
with poisoned lipstick
would be the choice
most fair.

My passions--
oh, such passions!--
are divided
down the middle.

Perhaps
I could give you
a single fatal riddle:

Look into
my bloodshot eyes--
one is Love
and one is Hate.

If you can guess
which one is which,
to live
will be your fate.

But if you
cannot read my eyes,
I'll cut your wrists,
your neck, your heart
with a razor blade.

Reason for writing:

    I had an argument with my significant other & have been reading too many murder mystery novels.  :)
