Thrashing Imagination - by Erik Smith

return to Erik's poetry index

 

today it is here again
the demon's claws and fangs
tearing and biting in imagination
wanting to manifest in reality

images of bloodshed and agony
rummaging around in laughter
plans of destruction and pleauges of hate
random happiness alongside it all

i am not happy
i am a solo disharmony
taking an overpowering position
mentally poised
whole-heartedly ready
the entity needing to devour

an actual pleauge
not a story
far from a fable
your head on the dinner table
last man left with all the glory
