ENTROPY

I am under attack

Hounded by terrorists

With sophisticated weaponry

Hitherto unheard of

Yet in simpler terms they be called

Words

So many of them

Both terrorists and words

They come a begging

From crook to cranny

To the furthest reaches of the

Mind

With laser guided precision

They reach my very being

Plaguing me asleep

Flattening me awake

Tempting my very

Soul

And I look into the mirror

And see a masked reflection

The eyes familiar

The smile vanished

And a mocking

Face

In the havoc of the heart

And the condemning of the soul

I seek succor

And both the arms

And the defenses are but

Words

They let me live happily

Yet they terrorize me oft

At times its colours so dazzling be

And at others the blacks too a mystery

I am but lost in words and

Verse

I think aloud

And scream so quiet

To emptiness I hit out

And wonder at times

Poetry is so beautiful that I hate

It.
