The Prize

The Prize

Laughing –
glass skeleton shattered.
Appeased with pleasure,
watching tears drip,
in silent eyes.

You’ve won this round,
always winning-
your effortless opponent,
already bandaged and bruised.

Take sweet delight –
your victory.
Another notch in your belt,
shine of conquest.

Puff-up tall giant,
as you step on your ants,
busily working –
surprised by the stomp.

Never fear,
plenty of weakened adversaries,
waiting to be smashed,
distracting your reality.

Who is it?
The long-lasting desire –
to destroy,
keep bemused; blaming.

Fulfilled,
self-proclaimed prophecy,
alone weeping,
attacking,
waiting on the next rival.
