Joy
Like the caged canary
constrained, confined, and confused

Sorrow
Similar to the snake
deceptive and devious

Hatred
Borrowed from the world
with racist and sexist tendencies

Love
Most likely taken from bogus books
with all of those ever-so-pleasant “happily ever afters”

Me
A product of it all
cynical, hateful, hurtful, and doubtful

Myself
The black sheep
misunderstood, misconstrued and often mistaken

I
The raging volcano
silent…quiet…ERUPTS.
