Hot Temper
Matters climb the chest wall
Fingers clutch in sweaty palm
In a bow forming a fist
A burning disastrous fire
Singes the heart hot
Heat pains at a gradual space
Slice through the veins opening
Blaze the blood bank
Expanded ribs express their prowess
Flood of suspended tears
Thaw the solid mucus
Hidden within the nostrils' colony
Irrigates parted lips
In a rage tremble
Shiver helplessly with saliva stains
Red eyes welcome more red
Under profusely sweaty furrows
The fierceness of a lion
The venom of a snake
The hail of destruction.
