The killer within

Filed under: poetry, mphutlane wa bofelo — ABRAXAS @ 4:30 pm

Like fleas cherish a sluggish

Surreptitious ruin of their habitat

Anger relishes a slothful

Demolition of the heart that harbors it

2

Just as ants wage a silent

War of slow destruction

To trounce colossal mountains

Vengeance leisurely chews

The chest that gives it homes

3

The rapturous whispers of the ego

Delude the flattered self that

The other is the victim

Of vitriolic outburst & retributive violence

Whilst iblis disguised as anger

Joyously throttle the human from within
