Storm in my Head

  

Korede Teriba

storm roars in my head.

thunder cracks in my voice,

fire engulfs my words and

they turn blazing arrows

flying from my lips

sometimes i want smash

someone's wretched skull like

an egg

sometimes i want to run a knife

through someone's throat

crimson spilling from the slit

like a dying Ram

sometimes i want to smother

light in someone's eyes

their sight,  darkness's mansion

because of the roaring

storm in my head

i know nothing good dwells

in me

i'm a distortion of God's image

an incarnation of evil

the darkness of my heart

is darker than the darkness

of the grave

my Father tells to come

"to be saved from yourself,

look to the hill. the man on

the Cross."
