Remember my Anger

Piercing, raging iron 

plunges down my throat.

Gasping and grasping,

tiny tendrils of darkness

creep, fighting to overtake.

Drowning and burning.

Limbs seizing and loose.

Heavy and weightless.

Scream bubbles up

but numbness overtakes.

Anger, betrayal,

and I will fight the gods.

I bring them my rage

on a golden platter.

Softly, now.

Drifting closer,

but the anger still burns,

one last reminder.

I can't forget

why I did it.
