The Scream

Rage is a deadly feeling, Umi once saidIt doesn’t move

anythingIt just makes you wanna punch a wall or a face It

just sits there, this heavy, dark thing in front of your eyes

making you feel nothing but hunger beating in your empty

bellySo you’re forced to face it and open your mouth

wide to swallow it whole, thinking that it will go down

smooth like warm milkBut rage is a thing with

bones and blood and screams that turn into

flames, so you have to chew on itTake

in all the sharp bitterness that makes your

tongue and mouth and words go numb

You don’t even know when it reaches

your throat because it’s already there

in your bellyHeavy thing not

moving like a heart stopped
