The Beast
I'm in pain can anyone feel my tendrils
crawling across the page in ink
everyday I fall just to get back up again
a fighter going ten rounds against the beast
the great dragon of old
his spiked tail
impaling me holding my innards
in my hands I suture the wounds
inficted by the master of destruction
who longs to suck me dry
from the inside out
left with nothing but a shell
no spirit left to speak of
inked in my blood
I speak in defiance to the powers that be
you won't engulf me
eat me alive
i've lived in chaos this life is mine.

I feel it. This poem is perfectly raw and
definitely adds to the sense of fight.

Strong poem.
