Anger Management

Anger sets in, deep in the mind. Amygdala fires up, logic becomes blind. Tightness of chest, muscles tensing, preparing for fight or flight. Anger sets in, deep in the mind. Thoughts crash and topple trying to find. Scrambling to make sense, to rationalise! Eyes widen, jaw stiffens as adrenaline flies! Anger sets in, deep in the mind. Darkness is craved from the logical side. Trying to find somewhere to hide. Quiet needed now to temper the mind. Alone with yourself but of a different kind. Anger sets in, deep in the mind. Rage containment, holding back the tide. Sitting still, of warring will to contain the anger inside. Draining strength to cool the blazing fire. When anger sets in, deep in the mind.
