Watching You Unhinge

You know not about fear
       when in the spotlight of 
your rage
       snarled in distorted
ugly

your hatred 
       twisting
       my unguarded spine
stunting small bones
   blustering
        bluffing
concealing weakness
       too plain to miss
as
      you pound down 
walls
      and
      hammer
ineffectively on
      my resolve
to
leave you
to
  your
      own
creation
