Layers [√]

[ the art of being angry ]

i channel my rage
like an alternate current
whenever i feel weak

i only have to get mad
put up a wall of fire strengthen
my insides with iron
unfurl my wings of zinc
burn my soul

until there is not a trace of vulnerability

i feel invincible
i feel unhurt
i feel like a god

i push up my tongue to the roof of my mouth
count from 0 to 100
inhale exhale hold my breath
throat growing dry from trying
to hold back my tears teeth baring
fists curled heart slowing down
to the beat of violence

when you're sad everybody
wants to tease you until you break but
when you're angry nobody touches you
behind the inferno

so can i hold on to my wrath?
