Malevolence

This craven beast within mans mind.
   It's changing face, deceit, disguise.
   He wears a mask to hide behind.

   A brute with never seeing eyes.
   Those inner thoughts where hatred breeds.
   Spits venom out, creating lies.

   A damaged soul forever bleeds.
   Hate speaks it's mind, but does not know
   Hostility, lifes poisoned seeds.

   They live in us, yet are the foe.
   All men who hate are never free
   This monster prowls, its full of woe.

   His cage, that blindness cannot see,
   A dark satanic mortal hell,
   Where acid tongue,blames liberty.

   Corrosive talk it does foretell.
   This craven beast within mans mind.
   Will steal your soul where it could dwell
   He wears a mask to hide behind.
