Hammered Metal Poetry
hard hit pieces of metal
bullet and fasten
the perfect tool
hand held weapon
finger on the trigger
an impulse so pure
hope follows near
a click of a tap complete the design
strikes metal on metal
never standing beside
fractured and battered
kill or stun
trigger for a hammer
holds the power
a weight in balance
slight twist of the wrist
a rush inside the stretch
rewards the protest
strikes down hard
a click of gears
free the rip of claws
destiny, must choose or stall
forever still walking the wall
pushing the hands that wind
life and chaos divine
