Liquid Poison

The more I think about the past 
The more shadowy flashy images come up to the surface
The more I try to figure out what the images  
The more I get confused and irate the feelings get 
The more I ignore the negative hostility energy 
The more it gets worse 
The more it tries to boil up to the top
The more the croak stopper quivers  
The more it becomes distressed over time
Until the point it unwilling shoots out of the top
Now the toxic venom start to well up  
Starts the cascading surge over the smooth lip 
Oozing and slithering down the silver-tongued facade
Not wanting to let this unruly and riotous
 Venomous poison that turns into violent tendencies 
Once this flesh eating liquid poison reaches the edge
The more I try to stop this from happening 
The more it claws and tries to hack open the steel door
The door that imprisons this frustration and violence won’t last
