Triolet: Words that Cut

Your dull knives are now razor-sharp
You slash and slice without mercy!
slitting wide inked letters 'cross my tent's tough leather tarp
Your dull knives are now razor-sharp
slipping through hearts still throbbing music by the angel's harp
of Death, you dealt then thou-sand cuts on me;
Your dull knives are now razor-sharp
You slash and slice without mercy!

Your dull knives are now razor-sharp
You slash and slice without mercy!
slitting wide, inked letters 'cross my tent's tough leather tarp
Your dull knives are now razor-sharp
slipping through hearts still throbbing, music by the angel's harp
of Death, you dealt then thou-sand cuts on me;
Your dull knives are now razor-sharp
You slash and slice without mercy!

Your dull knives are now razor-sharp
You slash and slice without mercy!
slitting wide inked letters, 'cross my tent's tough leather tarp
Your dull knives are now razor-sharp
slipping through hearts, still throbbing, music by the angel's harp
of Death, you dealt t(h)en thou-sand cuts on me;
Your dull knives are now razor-sharp
You slash and slice without mercy!

Your dull words are now razor-sharp
You slash and slice without mercy!
slitting wide inked letters 'cross my tent's tough leather tarp
Your dull words are now razor-sharp
slipping through hearts still throbbing, music by the angel's harp
of Death, you dealt then thou-sand cuts on me;
Your dull words are now razor-sharp
You slash and slice without mercy!
