The Stranger
I am the stranger
that lives inside
of you
I am with you
every day
When the world
reaches out
and slaps you
I come out
to play
I feed from your anger
for all that you have seen
all the broken promises
and unrealised dreams
I rattle the cage
you keep me in
longing to be free
I fill your light
with darkness
taking hope with me
With every slap i am stronger
weaker is my cage
I will one day consume you
I am Rage.
that lives inside

I rattle the cage
you keep me in
longing to be free
I fill your light
with darkness
taking hope with me
With every slap i am stronger
weaker is my cage
I will one day consume you
I am Rage.

sweet sweet sweet as is this short poem,throwing punch's from the very first word until the knockout king hit of the last word "rage" or should I shout "RAGE!!", I look inside myself and there the stranger sits, not so strange that, not 1 bit.......great look at the mass's of life, trapped in a cage built out of social conditioning, spoon fed to us from the very first click of the remote. vart@rt
