A Legacy of Jealousy

An aching head splits in hatred. Heart torments frustrated. Mouth foams ...poison provoke. Eyes reek .. fire and smoke. Oh! No one's out here jealous. Ugly, greedy. .wicked, animus. It's the ruckus of a green dragon. Agony boils.. a mean cannon. Can I punch, kick,.. rip off the hair? But I fake a smile at the perfect flair I swear and compare... my starless luck . The ivy of envy has weeds of evil muck. Can I eclipse that bright glowing sun? I fume, frown, fret..compete to outrun . The race of bronze, silver and gold. The legacy of jealousy... infinite.....uncontrolled. 9th September 20 18 .ranked 2nd Write Me An Emotion-Act Poetry Contest. Sponsored by Brenda Chri.
