If you look closely
At the sharp angles
They tell the story
Down to the abyss

The grey erupted
It started showing
The brewing storm clouds
Predicting the blast

I tried to tame it
To keep it flowing
High heat and pressure
Still willful unbent

So long and shaggy
Begging to escape
My knife cut through it
And I owned it then

Now we are able
To show our colors
Run wild together
And disrupt the flow

Contrarian, Critic, Disruptor. All my edges are sharp but I love a good laugh. Advocate for independent thought. General misfit known for ongoing rants.
