Poem I wrote

 .

.

.

MEET THE DEMONS


She had met a few of his demons


The ones that talk to him day and night


Trying to lead him astray


She had met Depression in his black cloak of hopeless despair


Cringed at Rage, bristling with weapons and planning annihilation


"Blow up the world, kill them all! " Rage shreiks


Confusion had wandered aimlessly through the room


On the way to sit in the dirt and make mud with his tears  


Trying to make sense of  broken fragments of goals and plans


However


The King of the Demons was Alcohol


Cunning, baffling, powerful


Constantly pointing out how a drink would fix everything


As Depression, Rage and Confusion agree  


A demonic chorus of death and despair and self destruction
