Abstract explosions

To decimate with dynamite,I'll detonate the trap
And I'll aerate your minions where they stand
I'll actuate, eradicate, explode it on your lap
The trigger point was never as you planned
Your blood will burst in crystal sparks, no pause to trip the ice
The conflict can be ended any day
In radial expansion there is struggle that's not nice
I'll put it in a poem anyway

oooh there is most definitely a devious undercurrent in this poem. How hot, how hard, how harsh, how well done!

You have floated this word bank with delightful rhyme lovely rhythm and I enjoyed reading it very much.

Your poem makes me want to peer around corners, and look over my shoulder, like there really MIGHT be something to fear. Very visual. It grabs the emotional pivot point of a reader.

You may have no idea why you entered, however, I am pleased that you did. Thank you for a splendid poem. Best of luck in the judging. ~Pamela
