    This is the story of the beast,
    The one who freed its self,
    And wreaked havoc.
    The one who terrorized,
    Destroyed everything in its path,
    And tore apart all of those who it saw.
    This is the story of the owner,
    Who saw what was happening,
    And chose to change it.
    The one who conquered this beast,
    And locked it away in a cage,
    Never to reveal the key again.
    This is the story of the beast,
    The one who freed its self.

    very powerful. powerful and real. in my mind, the beast is myself. botht hte owner and the beast. the beast wants to destroy itself and its owner both ( and for a while it did) but the owner tamed the beast. hahaha i look too far into it, but ey, nothing good is never cvlear and on the surfaace. great work. keep writing :)

    wow. now thats powerful storytelling. i wish you went more into detail. you could have expanded this idea but it also works simple and short like the way you have it. i would love to see an artists interpretation of this through imagery. good job nonetheless

    To have great poets there must be great audiences too.
