Appetite For Destruction Poem by Dashaun Rashod Snipes

In the depths of my soul, a hunger grows,
A feverish lust that consumes my mind,
A drive so strong, it constantly flows,
A desire for power, I cannot bind.
I crave the chaos, I long for pain,
For I am driven by an insatiable greed,
I'll do whatever it takes to reign,
Even if it means immoral deeds.
The need to divide, to poison and deceive,
A bottomless pit, always in need,
To destroy and assemble, to achieve,
In this cult, my hunger will feed.
With a morbid kingdom built on lies,
And shadows that cloak my every move,
I am like a demonic god, in disguise,
With fire and blood, I'll make my rule.
My belly aches, as it touches my back,
Yes, I am slim, but sly as a snake,
Swift on my feet, with a razor sharp tack,
I'll do whatever it takes, for my power's sake.
Everyday is war, seen and unseen,
For I am power-hungry, I crave control,
My desire for dominance, like a fiend,
My appetite for destruction has taken its toll.
I'll give you no rest, if I have none,
For I won't stop until the world is torn down,
An angel of warfare, my battle's just begun,
Waging war with witchcraft that haunts me all around.
I'll go down for anything, I understand,
The highway to hell, I've traveled before,
Lost the will to change, for I am damned,
And I won't rest, until there's nothing left to destroy anymore.
Fire, fire, fire, under my hand,
I am the enemy within your consciousness,
No need for tears, for my lost soul,
It ran away, driven by an endless appetite for destruction, in this world of chaos.
