Beware

Beware

A Poem by Liriel Luna

Beware the fury of a mother.
Her rage is a force to behold.
You will find that it matters not
If you are bigger, stronger or whatever;
Beware the fury of a mother.

The Wolf will take on a Bear
The Bear will square off against poachers
The Lion dares not anger the Elephant
You should not have dared
The fury of this mother. Beware.

Beware the fury of a mother,
Especially the mother whose fiery rage
Has deadened down to an icy fury
That summons forth the hounds of hell
That summons forth the gods themselves.

Beware the fury of a mother.
The Morrighan, Kali-Ma, Hecate 
All the goddesses of fury hear our cry for
Vengeance and justice.  You think you’re safe.
Beware the fury of a mother.

I delight in knowing what you do not
I see the noose tightening around your neck
Even while you think you can still breathe.
My patience has my fangs dripping and ready
For you to realize, too late, that you should

Always beware the fury of a mother.
You will wish that you had never
Brought it to life, brought out the beast,
The Wolf in me.  My fangs are ready
And you will wish for them in your throat

Rather than to face the justice coming.
The gods drew you back into this place,
Brought you where your Karma awaits
Soon you’ll behold my cold, smiling face
As you learn this universal truth:

Beware the fury of a mother.
