Anger
Describe vividly how you feel the emotion 'Anger'. Does it spread like wildfire in your body or does it start with the slow increase of your heartbeat. Does it urge you to create chaos or do you push your demon down back into its cage. I'd like to read all responses :)
lucyvan in Poetry & Free Verse

sensing anger

anger is what i feel

when the world falls apart

and there is seemingly nowhere

for me to run

anger is what i see

when i turn on the news

and look at the hopeless faces

screaming for justice

anger is what i hear

when i listen to the dark melodies

of songs played across the radio at

any time of day

anger is what i smell

when the smoke rises from the horizon,

sending a message to those who have

done them wrong.

anger is what you and i

carry inside of us. it eats

us alive until we find a way

to release it. or it consumes us

and all we love with it.
