Dragon Breath
All the men who took from me,
Who preyed upon my
Vulnerability,
Who stripped away my dignity,
I found them in their dreams and cut them
Down in the way they
Cut me.
I rise up in a fury breathing an angry,
Bright fire,
Shrieking like a banshee as the flames escape
My mouth.
I am the monster now.
Because no one ever
Bothers to learn the
Origins of villains, I won’t divulge the details of my own
History.
There isn’t time and
My heart is hungry
For revenge.
