Beast

I cNt control it.

I cant see it.

And most of all I cant beat it.

Its hungry and I have nothing to feed it.

Its angry and it claws to get out.

It wants to devour everything insight.

It something to happen. I'm even if it isn't to its delight.

So it growls and snarls.

It sticks its muzzle out the bars.

It knows its lock up real tight.

And in its eyes you can tell it loves the fight.

But oh how badly it wants free.

And if I opened its pin...it would. Completely destroy me.

I felt a bond with this beast once long ago.

But here it is...in a cage for show.

It feels betrayed and it doesnt handle anger well.

If it got a hold of me...the end I may not be around to tell.

But its such a mesmerizing monster.

It surely is.

Its bigger than a bear and scarier than a hell itself.

And I have it here like a trofy on a shelf.

Its ears are big and never stops listening.

And goes in attack mode at the sound of whistling.

Its much stronger than any animal I've ever heard of.

But locked in a cage with no love.

It paces around for hours at a time.

As days go by I watch it slowly lose its mind.

It must be a pretty horrid felling to make such a beast wallow in pain.

It cant control itself anymore.

It clearly lost its plan.

It goes from trying rip me to shreds from its cell to walking in circles with its head hung low.

As calm az it can be at some points.

I cant take the risk.

And I cant let it go.

Because a beast devours and creates terror.

And the beast is starving. This I know
