Words of a Poet

The Green Monster

Warning: Not a poem you would find in a children's book.

Words are whispered in agonizing beauty
Against the skin of soft withered roses
Words of seductive and sweet revenge
Slithering and poisoning the abrasions in the skin

Eyes blazing devilishly; and smile,
No teeth showing, but wide and formed in a smirk
As if nothing can bring it down

It. It isn't a human anymore
But a ruthless sadistic monster, a sadistic
For the one that turned it
Into a monster
A bully,
A tyrant,

Because one by one as its enemies fell
And power became a drug instead of stepping stones
     What a thing this emotion is...
Turned a star into a black hole
Sucking all the light from other stars
    .
    .
    .
Jealousy... The green monster.

A/N: Did you notice that the wording wasn't gender specific? It can happen to anyone.
