Gripping knuckles against knuckles <br />Gnashing the teeth against teeth <br />Heaving breast to stretch a temper <br />Groaning hoarse to ease release <br /> <br />In your face I blast my anger <br />In your flesh I’ll etch my grief <br />Up to God I cry my yearnings <br />From your blood I’ll quench my thirst <br /> <br />God forbid my retribution <br />O I plead for quick relief <br />Let my heart from fiery furnace <br />Be as subtle as the face <br /> <br />Of that Man hung on the cross <br />How He gave His life for less<br /><br />mifael llauderes<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/prayer-before-revenge/
