Wonders

IT wondered.
It was a mystery.
What was in that mind?

What had caused the change...
so drastic, so strong.
So intense, so wrong?

IT pondered.
What was wanted, exactly?
Why the need, the fiery desire to obtain?

This bulldozer
Running over everyone in its path
Denying all protests, ignoring all stares.

It trampled.
It evoked fires of confusion
Of fear, of worry.

It raged
And fanned twirls of doubts
Of utter disbelief.

IT sought hard
to truly understand
But the smoke remained. Thick.

It choked.
And stifled in its flaming glory
to strive for more

That bottomless pit
consumed everything in fury
then said "MORE!"

It was not ITs wish
Can't be helped.
Can't be curbed.

IT ached.
For the burning to end
For it to return.

IT wondered
when will these stop,
These sorrowful combustions.
