Release

I just want to be mad right now

and throw a rather huge fit.

Let logic alone for a moment

and let me act on instinct for a bit.

Put me some place safe

that won’t matter if I destroy.

Stay out of my way

so I don’t hurt or annoy.

Careful to exhaust all that anger

which is precarious I know

because venting usually doesn’t shrink

but causes all that ill will to grow.
