The why


The why haunts my days,
runs like mad froth
across my bared teeth.

The why is a feral animal,
ominous with hindsight
and a sense of wild marvel

– just before doubt
speared all possible footfalls
in the possible –

The why is I.

"Why is a feral animal" -- I just love your metaphorical use of language. A very unique way of expressing 'why'. I enjoyed reading this. 5/5.

Regards,
John.
