within me

what cumbersome beast is this
that comes lumbering from the cave,
swathed in chains, swaying with
the weight of evils unspoken;
o, behold this creature
lowly and pitiful and
repulsive
from what unison
arose this deathly
dearth of light and goodness?
and how, pray tell,
might it again be
suppressed before
its presence is made
even more known
to the world?
