De Wolf / Sedate

De Wolf / Sedate

A Poem by Thomas Emile Vaughen

No matter the niceness, something in
my spirit is froth and fang, foam and rage...
no matter the eloquence I muster on the page, 
I need to find an outlet depraved 
As the sins which I'm currently planning 
how to atone for, corrupt more
Black as hide, hideously tried to bite 
the not-so-innocent whimperer  
Came at her with claws and jaws, upending 
natural laws, defiling, deriding the pleasure
which I take, wrapping round like a snake, 
suffocating my prey. Sedate.
