ANGER!

The venom within

ANGER!

THE SUBTLENESS OF ANGER BLOSSOMEDΒ 
IN MY THOUGHTS UNAWARES.

I WAS SURE THAT THE DECEPTIONΒ 
I HAD EXPERIENCED,
WAS FORGIVEN AND FORGOTTENΒ 
WHEN I PRAYED.

FOR A VERY LONG TIME,Β 
THIS VENOMOUS EMOTION
LAID QUIET AND HELPLESSΒ 
IN THE CREVICES OF MY MIND.

THEN ONE DAY,Β 
I HEARD THAT VOICE OF DECEPTION.

THE FLAME OF ANGER WERE KINDLED,
AND IN AN INSTANT,
THE STRENGTH OF REASONΒ 
WERE OVERCOME BY UNCONTROLLABLE RAGE.

THE INFESTATION OF ANGER
BEGAN BOILING WITHIN MY SOUL,
LIKE THE NUCLEAR FUSION OF THE SUN.

AND BEFORE THE BLINKING OF AN EYEΒ 
A DEADLY BLOW WAS UNLEASHEDΒ 
AND REALITY NOW FINDS ME HARNESSED,
IN THE ELECTRIC CHAIR.

WILFORD BARKER.

Being Me

Wow!Β  What an awareness write! Those dark things that lie, hidden, within the corners of the back of our mindΒ  .. can kill. In many ways. At any time. A very good reason for shadow work. Search out them skeletons and lay properly to rest x
