Untitled Poem by Mandy Lee

Darkened moon, why do you weep?
Lifeless, listless, your children yearn for sleep.
Kept in chains and bound by laws,
Sleep is mauled by anger's maws.

Still the anger that clouds your heart,
Lest you tear a family's love apart.
Did you not teach your children that play is fair?
Even if hatred and rage are still there.

Quell your heart and its burning flames,
For burning bridges was never a game.
Smell the stench and if you feel it gnaw,
There are darkened souls that hope you feel guilt, for there is more.

Corruption will give what corruption will get,
So please don't make this the only place I have left to place my bet.
