You Mean It’s Not Your Gun?

He died and slumped against the wall as I stood watching from the hall behind you.

You try to say it's not your gun!  Of course it's yours, you picked it up!

And anyway, I saw it fall and skim across the floor.

Before others come, please take back your gloves, and let me say (strictly between ourselves) a heartfelt “Thank you.”

You have cleared the path to my inheritance
