The other day something happened to me that hasn’t happened since High School A scream audible, loud, but only for me In my mind Sustained for mere moments And then gone Rousing like a battle cry But with a hint of anguish Peeling back my eye lids like banana’s Rattling its cage Like a beast that has grown to large for its master And is dumped down the toilet like a sewer crocodile As if ready to burst from my skull And spread its tattered bat wings Heave the birth breath and swoop down lower Manhattan To terrorize hipsters Its fire breath singed my eyebrows And burned down the walls of my capitols of reason Biases and assumptions Forever breaking my ties And branding my forehead with the name Urgnd
