The ABC's of the Monster Pain

The ABC's of the Monster Pain

Allow me the satisfaction of living
Bring to me the power to fight
Callous-covered enemies and
Deranged monster-like atrocities
Elapsing the time by torturous
Ferocities that stop short of
God and retreat in fear as they
Hinder another victim with
Indifference and let the animals
Jackhammer the nails of
Knowledge into my body
Liquidizing into my soul
Mastering the art of abuse
Nourishing my empty body with
Ominous fevers disguised with 
Potent bittersweet liquor of 
Quietness capped with the silent
Riot of voices and bodies in 
Scorching heat of abandonment and 
Teasing chills of crowding imperfections
Undulating in waters of free
Violence throwing itself at the
Wealth of precious innocence created by
Xylography instituting itself in the 
Yearning body like wood with the
Zealous baby of sin and hate.

Reason for writing:

    I have had a problem with depression for over a year, and in late December, early January, I was in agony from loneliness and depression.  I feel that I write most of my best poems when im in a down mood, and I wrote this in one of them.  It doesn't make immediate sense, but every line has its meaning, every meaning has its place in all our lives.  I felt I needed to share this with everyone, in hopes of letting the lonely know they're not alone.
