the beast within

The beast within.
I go in pursuit of it, I seek it out.
I reveal it and hunt it like a ravenous animal,
The beast within me is not gentle, nor rational nor reasonable,
It is wild. Mad.
Not angry but powerful,
It is furious. Fierce.
It is hideous. Revolting. Rancid.
The beast within me is bold, Tempting. Lusty. Lustful.
It is a serious force. It is without equal.
Contentious, vain and arrogant.
It is straightforward, effortless, uncultivated and natural.
Bless the beast within me.
