Darkness Roars
How can you explain pain?
When you feel it, recognize it
And relive it again
In someone else’s eyes
A memory locked in your body
Makes your fists clench
Involuntarily in a shoddy
Meaty, tight, sweaty drench
A viscous restless energy
A snarling patch of black
Sucking up the vitality
Of anything along your track
Your darkness roars
Your evil thrashes
And devils dance
Between your lashes
When you feel it, recognize it
And relive it again
In someone else’s eyes
A memory locked in your body
Makes your fists clench
Involuntarily in a shoddy
Meaty, tight, sweaty drench
A viscous restless energy
A snarling patch of black
Sucking up the vitality
Of anything along your track
Your darkness roars
Your evil thrashes
And devils dance
Between your lashes

"And devils dance / Between your lashes " is particularly nice.
