Poem Artwork

The beast inside
it slumbers
waiting
seeking an opportunity
to feed
Anger, hate
malevolence
finds
a breeding den
in me
You speak
you push
inciting
rage to raise
its head
You hit
you twist
ignoring
the vicious monster you
have fed
It's possession
takes me over
writhing
with each scathing word
you've said
Claws contract
A growl ensues
brimming
your spiteful eyes
with dread
Your words
they cease
acknowledging
the fire with which
you played
Claws they rend
crimson spews
staining
the path down which
you've strayed
The beast has fed
it slumbers down
awaiting
the next convenient chance
to test
I feel with
tonight's transgression
finally
my malevolence has found
its rest

Reminded me of a few scenes in Van Helsing where the Werewolf tears off the human flesh to become the monster. I sense some anger is being directed to someone or thing. Cool write Lady.

Sometimes what passes as "malevolence at rest" is in reality only the beginning of the true feast. Your words always fill me, yet leave me hungry for more. -- Jeff

Not me Felix, I am pure as the driven snow. Uh, that's three-old-day snow after it has been driven on, sloshed around in and generally become sloppy and nasty stuff. THAT'S me alright. Good.

Ithink we all have that beast lurking in the shadows of our self conscious somewhere. Well captured idea and vivid images conjured up with this one.
