Die Hard by Kelly Mc Auliffe

Die Hard

by Kelly McAuliffe

The perpetual action hero, you

strode into my life,

snatching me up in your right arm and

slaying the villain with your left -

commandeering my heart for a

jarring ninety-minute ride.

You seized each moment.

allowing me only the occasional

line of dialogue and a

scream or two.

But this is my story.

So, in the retelling,

I will reduce you to a supporting character,

then a cameo,

and finally

the "man with gun' in

scene four.
