Anger

Truth upon my rage,

Too real for anger to accept.

Too pure for egos to confront,

Too vulnerable to connect.

-

Aint the red just on my lashes

and not in their complexion?

It preaches through a tongue of flames,

but instinct often calls for correction.

-

Lingering as a brewing vagabond,

prone to those or pained.

To blend a hole that can't be filled,

or seeming purpose that can't be gained.

-

Hurting of its owner alone,

in irony of its intentions.

If you'd blow a wind that shaves the flames,

Well, that would be a nice invention.
