Coming forth from an unknown depth,
From a pit of deprivation and emptiness,
Raw material for this steel emerged...
It contained elements of love...and hate.
Being forged through the fires of many hells,
The flames infused anger, mistrust, and...
Aggression, into a force of destruction.
This destructiveness was not alone....
Inherent was the trio of happiness,
Trust, and peace – elements of life.
Within this cold steel a battle waged,
Good elements versus bad elements.
But the refining fires of Hades
Raged to destroy what it saw as impurities...
Happiness...trust...peace...life
It became the sword of refined aggression...
A destructive weapon began its reign.
Beneath its sheath, it laid in wait...
For instigation or cause to act -
Then it would strike.
Thoughtlessly justified in its transgression,
It was too furious to feel remorse.
Ironically, this way of life increased its needs...
To be held...to be useful...to be loved...
