Anger is a flame

That quarrels in my lungs

And licks at my brain

I feel it searing behind

My eyes

Its unrelenting grind

Emblazons my pride

All humility vanishes and 

I'm let Loose upon 

My inner thoughts of candid violence


Words words words

I beg to spit

And sneering teeth and threatening lips

Back me into a corner

I Dare you to try

From this anger I do not hide

Reveling in it, I cannot stifle sparks

That fly off my incisors 

As I tear you apart.


But anger is shame

its an untidy dance

that is over before it 

can be romanced

Anger is a bridle a 

rusted chain

and once snapped

cannot be restored again.
