Rage

Rage is dark rust red like clotted blood

Balled fists and hot tears

White hot like molten iron

Sharp and vicious as a cooled blade

Shrill keening and worn out sobs

Forged into quiet, constantly simmering fury

Long, silent, anguished screams into pillows

And inside lonely vehicles at 60 miles per hour

With the music turned up loud to drown out the ragged

Sound shaking free of its mooring

Now a million dancing embers

Just waiting for the right bluster to ignite again
