Contents of a Spent Wrath

A Poem by Rapterj
"

And the empty vase of anguish.

"

What would such wrath contain?

That we would be stripped our pain.

 

Our dignity,

Our pride,

And the sacrifice we make.

 

Its a blade of the purest origins

With evil at its heart.

 

A baneslayer of all that is good and righteous

Born with best intent.

 

What would such wrath contain?

If it were unleashed at will,

 

Relinquished,

Abandoned,

Abolished,

Dismissed.

 

Like the forgotten blade.

 

Vines, entangling and burning

Burning with rust

 

Like a vice spent with rage

In its hearth lies distortion

 

Destruction,

Pain,

And an end.

 

What would such wrath contain?
