bade the beast welcome



He bade the beast welcome
dark spirit inside
calling forth the terror
others surely hide

The beast a mask upon him
grotesque and garish
his life take over
the beast now his persona

Unbound by convention
societal norms and mores
the beast loose within him
fully in control
