Clouding Fear With Anger


I want to eat the world,

I want to swallow it up.

I am a giant, I have thunder in my footsteps.

Don't tell me no, I will give you a fight.

Don't tell me to do this, do that, I will gnash my teeth. 

If you talk too much, I will pull your faults from your lips,

I will use them against you, I don't care if they're from yesterday.

I want to eat the world,

I want to swallow it up.

I am a free verse poem, I have no rhyme or meter.

DO NOT TELL ME NO. 

YOU TALK TOO MUCH.

I am going to swallow you up.

Admire the red streaks on my arms, I PUT THEM THERE.

I am angry giant, 

And I am going to eat the world.
