The Darker Side Of Man By Dave Mezzabotta

[SystemWisdom 0]

I am not a big fan of poetry personally, but when I hear a good poem it tends to stick with me...

 

Anyway, my favorite poem of all time was written by a friend of mine about 10 years ago, and I somehow still remember it.. I want to share it here with all of you people, and hear your responses. It is such a good poem, I find it hard to believe he wrote it, and therefore if you have ever heard it before, please point me in the direction of the original!!

 

The darker side of man

By: David Mezzabotta

 

Born of vengeance and scum,

nurtured by rage and terror.

I am the shadow of good hearts,

I set the minds of men aflame.

Burning away through sanity and reason,

ripping through the firm morals of thy victim.

I am the cause of death and war,

the fall of those mighty and true.

I am hate.

Be forewarned.

I dwell within your heart,

and I wait!

 

Can you invision the sanity (or lack there of) of my friend?

 

I hope you have enjoyed it, I find it very powerful!
