Holes

A couple of bangs, then a crash
he picks up his head and saw
the fog plumming through
the gunshot holes,
in the train windows,
like smoke from a cigar.
He looks out the window,
and saw me there.
Reloading my guns
but all he did was stare.
I picked up my guns
and cocked them back.
I aimed right for him
but he did not move.
I put my fingers on the triggers
and gave one a pull.
It felt like slow motion,
as it passed through his skull,
In through his face,
and out through the back.
I knew it was over
when I looked at his head
and smoke seeped from the hole,
like smoke from a cigar.
