Demon Poem by Dennis Bergeron

My head is a bomb that's about to explode
I cannot continue to carry this load
I know I could fly if I just had a cape
Please give me something to help me ESCAPE!

This demon's been growing for 22 years
He feeds off my anger and swims in my tears
He's usually calm, mostly he's tame
But don't get confused he's completely insane
I'll continue to hold him as long as I can
But this demon is strong...and I'm only one man
