I stalk the edges of
your soul
Unobserved I watch
with baleful eyes
Ignored, I feed in
corners
A voraciousness I hide
I live behind the
fence of smiling eyes
Though blank stares
suit me best
Dementia eludes me
I remember very well
Chameleon camouflaged
Concealed behind
compassion
I choke on smoke
screens empathy
Indifferent and
uncaring
At times corrosive,
caustic
Acid tongue
Will flash and flicker
Before dipped once
more in honey
Know this
I am your rage
Powerful, potent,
articulate
I cast aside my
camouflage
I rise in wraths red
heat
No childish tantrum
this
No selfish sulk
That life did not go
my way
My voice will learn to
speak
And in the spoken word
My birth right I will
claim
I love the way you write, nice....
