A short and dark poem about the anger that lives because of what has been done.

-Wide Eyes You Tremble-
by
Keaton Foster

*Vignette5* *Vignette5* *Vignette5* *Vignette5* *Vignette5*


Looking down
While all others look above
Noticing so much
Far more than most
Wide eyes you tremble
Death and darkness you resemble
Terrible thoughts and ideas
You fight to assemble
Coherent plans of the end
For not only yourself
But for all that share
The same boundaries of skin
You wish to send our species packing
Into the gates of heaven
Or the dungeons of hell
Destination has always been insignificant
Wide eyes you tremble
But not with regard to fear and uncertainty
You tremble because of anger
An anger that consumes
Every second of your life
Who made you so mad
Is as unclear as why you can’t forgive
Doomed by all that they did
Committed to who you are
And what they have created
Sad some would say that you are
You would of course disagree
Being so angry forces purpose
Meaning of your inner being
And the darkness you are screaming
Wide eyes you tremble
Looking down
While all others look above
Noticing so much
Far more than most
When the time is right
When you have all of the weapons
That will be required to wage war
On not only yourself but your kind
Then you will strike
Then you will wipe the world clean
Never again will all that has been
Ever be…
