Wrath: Words Spoken In Anger Poem by Mahfooz Ali

Faster, faster drums beat in my head
harsher, harsher your words grow
drumsticks batters a rythm of pain
noice the echo of your wrath

Thump, thump judge’s hammer slam
wack, wack swords collide
justification you seek
honour you demand

Feeble I lay beneath the drums
hands outstretched begging for mercy
crushed I stand before your words
eyes aggrieved with pain

Humiliated before judge I stand
soul silently seeking mercy
inferior I bow before sword
head in submission for final stroke.
