I Saw Her Beauty Poem by Thabani Khumalo

An ugly man came contrasted in my way
and made the place seem unattractive to the view
by the amount of furs all over his face and hands,
he aroused my wrath to its most brutal cline -
I forgot all about mercy and switched into a beast.

I rolled up my sleeves and got all prepared
to direct a bum down a very difficult road until
I saw a beautiful woman emerge among the crowd
and I instantly remembered to be calm and really sweet -
and in all my blazing wrath, I remembered mercy,
I was saved by the bright look alone
when I was ready to kill a foolish man with my bare hands...
I don't ever want to be an intentional murderer!
