Quiet Vengeance Poem by Barry Middleton

Quiet Vengeance



the day I think the flood is done
the water gets much deeper

and all the rivers run with blood
from a cold and deadly reaper

I hear the winds no longer howl
I think the storm abates

but I was only in the eye
a second half awaits

and when I feel my pain will end
I hide from cruel deceit

with certainty the blow will come
to knock me from my feet

I seek a retribution day
when fire consumes the sky

and flood and war and evil winds
at last will finally die
