Poetic Asides Wordle: counterpunch, inept, execute, sub..., inept

 Counterpunch

 

There is a voice inside my head

who’d like to execute me dead.

Accusing me of being subhuman.

Warns me of trouble blooming.

Scolds, judges, condemns me,

Berates me endlessly

for my ineptness, but I offer

this unholy scoffer,

in righteous indignation,

a counterpunch of affirmation.

I am God’s child, a divine creation.

To the inner nag, no relation.
