In Creative Corner, poetry

Brew:
Whimpers of iniquities,
Charades of pain,
Histrionics to please-
The divine cronies

Hearken:
Come forth to partake
In this feast of impetuousness.
Let your brawny tongues
Of devastation savour
The un-merry calm I abhor.

Djinni:
That your hunger for blood and destruction
Overtakes my meek-ly fault.
Take charge, my puppeteer,
And rain some punition down.

Alter Ego:
Not all mad men run naked.
Ferity, boxed in ties and shoes,
Does sometimes let loose –
Triggered by a poke or push,
Yearning, craving,
For freedom from
The illusions of civility.
