Rage

Strike like a hammer to the furnaced rod, emmited sparks of incessant lust With tempest storm against the rocks purged deep within the flesh, for nothing else requites with such deep pleasure With focussed beam projected like a light house seeking souls. Avoiding all else but that one aim of gratified, repugnant pleasure The hawk its quarry, the bow its arrow. This guilty sin, its spur like a rod to lightening Yet the truth shall find its bubble and set my building straight. The heat shall be over, spent at last, as night falls on another day

'...the hawk its quarry, the bow its arrow,' A genuine expression of unbridled lust and passion. Too bad night had to 'fall on another day.' Well done Terry! Keith
