Notes About The Poem

- Beast -


                                         The creature
                                     Denies criminal guilt
                                                Pain
                                              Torture

                                          Bodily injury
                                  Captivated and frightened
                                     unreflected thoughts

Me before my coffee.... We are double minded -- sadly a little creature in all of us. If not for the grace of God.... Sunshine, is the art work yours also? Great form.
