The Colors of Anger

Reds and purples swirling in my brain
My neck hurts now and I am irritated
Ha! So much farther than that.

I can taste all the foods I despise the most
In my mouth is a slimy mushroom
Ugh! Is that liver? I see the red blackness and I retch.

My back is aching. I am a wreck.
Anger is coming out of my head in waves.
Why did they have to come? I have never liked them.

Today I may do something I will regret.
May? Ha! I am going to do something I regret
Thanks to the taste of mercury and anger in my mouth.
