    Transformation

    Before me stands a kid about five feet
    with innards burning red and violent green
    hidden beneath a face of baby pink.
    Released from his shell, given second birth,
    he devoured loved ones like they’re dessert
    and with hasty fists destroyed the world.
    He leaps from the cracks into Heaven. Pain
    he begot bleeds into me and inflames
    my heart. During my nap he stole and ate
    the world. Through jaded eyes I see his fate
    belongs to me. I claw for strength
    to kill the devil I grudgingly face.

    The world trembles fearfully underneath
    me as the tide leaps up to reach the peak.
    My eyes shine with the tint of nature’s green
    and golden locks weave through my seams.
    The sun’s eclipsed as Light engulfs me
    and within me the sky and the sea meet.

    Now ready to face the devil I breathe
    solid spirit fueled by losses he brings.
    Ahead some paces on ground with firm feet
    beating his chest, he’s waiting for me.
