Jealousy-The Most Read Contest

(How Dare!) Hate and jealousy have no dimensions Calm I appeared for none to suspect A nuclear bomb had blasted me apart The adrenalin had evaporated My eyes were like veiled magnesium balls My nostrils were polluted with the air of jealousy My heart inflated and deflated like a lost gas balloon Realised I was a grainy sandy mountain of strength Gathered my broken bones joined them With the delusion of sweet gelatine Settled my hairy antennas and stitched my ripped wits Set my mental clock right to hear my ticking pulse Turned back the pages to re-read the cause of this Atomic disaster. Funny how complacency and Underestimating every opponent as a friend Had mutilated my whole being. My words Uttered, my plans imbibed and carried away my Yearned for prize froze my ulcered voice Haunting silently, 'How dare!'. HONOURABLE MENTION Balveen Cheema September 9, 2015 Contest: My Most Read Contest Sponsor: Jerry T. Curtis
