Shining Monsters

I’m not a superhero,
Criminal I am.
I see the world getting worse by the day,
But the beauty lies within.

Horns & claws & jagged edged teeth,
Not these but brains are all I have.
Yet animals kill without logic
And I kill to prove illogic.

Fret over money, I shall not,
Lack of it is the root of evil.
Conspiracies I cried,
Bureaucrats I yelled,
Crib I did and avenge I will.

Time though is funny.
Here for a nanosecond,
But been here 4 ½ billion.
Sand holds more significance.
And my body is raped to bits,
But the soul is made for consequence.

Why then should I cry outrage?
For I only get what I give.
So I shall give a smile
And spread sunshine.
Like the stars at which I gaze,
My hope shall not fade.
And when the time is near,
Love is all I shall praise.


[Here’s to not losing hope that our women and children shall soon be safe.]
