Edward Ibeh Poet Verse

Aggression

snakes uncoil...
            ready to strike
                   before
          rattling their tails.
    flames of rage crackle;
             white-hot on
                 highway.
               two drivers
                   hissing,
               exchanging
                invectives
 madness reigns supreme!
  game of Russian roulette
                   played...
     with lives on the road.
