Just take it all awayA Poem by Donald OldsI got the inspiration from HamletI was blinded by rage, Just the thought of you makes me boil. I had to do something, something that Would take it all away. Just take it all away: You’ve kept me in the shadows Just barely keeping me alive; Slowly feeding me to the animals Slowly all the pain fades away As I stand there and watch you die. Finally I got my way, After you’ve taken so much away. Taken what was rightfully mine. But as I stand here and watch you die I know that I’m going To heaven, while you’re Being tormented in hell.
