The Button

The Button

A Poem by JR

All this time, I’ve had

my finger on the button

all this time, I’ve had

the power to end everything

all this time, I’ve had

destruction blooming beneath my hand

all this time, I’ve had

a reason to blow s**t up

all this time, I’ve had

hurricane breath and mortar shells

all this time, I’ve had

the will to launch my missiles

all this time, I’ve had

to spend on my strategy and tactics

all this time, I’ve had

to consider gaps in my armor

all this time, all along, I’ve had

my finger on the button

all this time, all along, I’ve wanted

to blow s**t up
