Death and Reincarnation

In comprehensive anger overwhelms my body
My mind incapable of controlling deaths grip
The continuing struggle as I strive to breath
Maintaining self restraint is my solitary defense
Bottled rage exploding upon impact as, 
un level ground rushes to meet me
I lay a curled heap in agonizing pain
Writhing and twitching uncontrollably
The venom courses through my veins
My heart content with beating one last time
No longer in command my eyes close slowly
Serpents poison wins this time but i'll return again
