> I take the knife from the kitchen drawer.

I shine up the waiting blade.

This is why I am here.

This is what comforts me.

> Muffled cries from the next room.

A plead for mercy.

This is what comforts me.

This is what pleases me.

> I stand in her doorway, bigger than I am.

She is smaller than the corner she is in.

This is what pleases me.

This is why I am here.

> Her abdomen gives way.

Her blood cleanses me.

This is what comforts me.

This is what pleases me.
