Yet I Smile With Sparkling Eyes

My anger boils deep down inside.
Yet I smile with sparkling eyes.
Hot blood flowing vie chamber to chamber…
Thumping heart beats vexed closer to danger…
Drinking in downpouring tears and cries.
Yet I smile with sparkling eyes.

Pissing out vengeance, bourbon and wine.
Bowels rumble loudly from the hate I dine.
Hands wipe away sweat of brood and brine.
Cap rim shadows inhuman thoughts of mind.
Gut pit energy peaking and on the rise.
Yet I still smile with sparkling eyes.

Guard my steps' quick smooth strides.
Make not my eyes deem you unwise.

This is how I spent my "throw-back Thursday"; remembering the time someone make me very very angry. I was smiling and chuckling until I found myself even closer to them. Whew, scary moment. We learn something new everyday. With much gratitude *** Niyna
