Fought Out His Senses Poem by Peter Umoh

The 'mad, ' retorted
'Are you crazy'
Unleashed his arm
And delivered a stroke
The bad-tempered man
Fell a victim of his temper
Then fight begun
/Thought my senses failed
But no, t'was theirs
Difficult to accept the truth
Or the reality of the physical combat
As blows rained like bombard
Then I realised the two, went mad
One in suit, the other a celebrated lunatic
/Passers-by rebuked
'He is not a lunatic
He's only got a bad-temper'
/Of what use was his sanity, if his temper could drive him crazy
Causing him to FIGHT OUT HIS SENSES.
