They Feel My Fire: A poem about heavy metal
somewhere deep inside of me
the words they pull my draw string
freeing this beast
my fortified well of rage
they show it
it's ok
you exist
double kick, sings to me
their bellied screams
a part of me
chaotic mess and yet
violently soothing
power chords waging war
i throw my head
hair flies closed eyes
i might even bite my lip
torn clothes
hope it shows
how rotten it's gotten
inside my festered mind
push and shove
rise above
the crowd and ride their heads
scream or shout
say it loud
no one can really hear you
unless, aside
you've got the mic
then scream with all your life
now sing to me
you metal thing
pour your heart blood
into mine
feel it thud
feel it rush
through the speakers
down my spine
i feel your vex, i feel your rage
makes me wild
primal fire
I'd sex you right on stage
don't know your name, your face
just give me that cobalt
right in my deep space
FUCK i love heavy metal
