The Demon of Anger

The demon of anger invades my form, Muscle crawling tension emotions swarm, His mask becomes the skin of face, Commanding blinkers narrow gaze. Now the flesh of back and neck become steel. The poison sounds belching from your lips to my ears, Fuel a furnace of emotion in my heart that sears, Boiling blood burns its path through my veins Pumping up muscles with anticipation like pains. In my head emotion unlocks the cage where poisoned memories shake with rage Like sick plague bunnies they f**k with my thoughts Breeding beasts of rage with their slime and farts. Valiantly my soldiers of reason and calm Battle the horde with it's lust for harm They may win, they may lose But it's for u to choose For the crimes that you did And the words that you said Wrote the play that will end With this scene.
