“Let The Beast Sleep”

I have been
A mere
House cat
Domesticated
For a minute
But
That predator
That animal
That beast
That part of
My DNA
That makes
Me
A lioness
That was
Sleeping
Peacefully
Is almost
Out of
Hibernation
And
That energy
Once depleted
Is almost
Recharged
100%
I am almost
Ready
To be
Unplugged
Voraciously
Insatiable
Enthusiastic
To hunt
I am tired
Of people
Testing
Pushing me
In a direction
I have been
Avoiding
At all cost
To go there
Makes
A predator
Rise up
From the ashes
Creating
Something
That no one
Is ready
To meet
So
Stop pushing
Me
To the brink
Because
If my back
Is against
The wall
I will not think
I will attack
Before
You blink
And
It will be
Your fault
Because
I warned you
Nonetheless

“I Wear My Hats Proudly”

I am told
My facial expressions
Are priceless
I wish
I could see
What
The person
In front
Of me
Is seeing
But maybe not
Because
People
Have told me
I come off
Mean
When I am
Not trying
To be
But
Anyway
That will not
Change me
Love me
Or
Hate me
It makes no
Difference
Because
I am
Who
I am
I can be
Harmless
I can be
Ruthless
When I open
My mouth
Sometimes
My roar
Comes out
Silent
Until
The volume
Is turned up
When my opinion
Is asked
I say
Friend
Or
Foe
Be cautious
When you step
Beyond
Those boundaries
My truth
Is not
For all
And a lie
You will not
Hear from me
I do not
Do fake
I do not hold
My tongue
For anyone
You ask
I answer
And
Be prepared
Expect my truth
If you want
A lie
Ask another
Because
I do not
Kiss
No one’s @ss
And
Hold their hand
When the
Truth is
What they need
To hear
