Grabbed the stars from the sky while they were still hot,
In a tight fist scalding,
threw them to the earth.
Rain of fire, candlelight,
..... a spell from the Dark Ages,
illuminate their minds,
smash this fucker to pieces.
Sabotaged the silent night,
and rocked the boats like paper plates.
Cascading them in a whirl of molten lake.
The thrill of summoning Chaos for chaos' sake.

Excellent pen!

Welcome to Allpoetry
I love this poem. Your imagery is fantastic, and though this is short, you still manage to make an impact on your audience. I'm not a fan of profanity in poetry, since most people just curse for cursing's sake, and a poorly-placed f-bomb can make or break an entire piece. You, however, are the first poet I've encountered, in a long time, who can curse artfully, and that is something to be admired.
My only criticism: I don't like your title, as I don't find it befitting to the poem itself. The wrapping-paper should always be indicative of what's inside, and I don't feel that yours did the poem enough justice. Of course, that's my opinion... Take it for what it's worth.
Well done, and keep writing!
