No use in being angry anymore

It's a well-worn road that guarantees no betterment

No improvement to be found in rage,

In the hot red of your peripherals

No use,

And yet it occupies the computer in your chest.


You sit in that car

Listening to slow and steady breaths

And wonder why your eyes are wet

Or why your fingertips feel ablaze

Your skin is so hot, so warm

And it's cause of one thing.


No use in it,

It's a path of desire in your neurons,

It's the most familiar route for your artillery

Heart thudding to the floor of your chest,

The cavern within you fills itself with blood

And you taste the iron at the back

Of your tongue like espresso.


You wonder why you feel red inside

But you should be wondering why you feel anything

No use in being angry anymore,

In being sad or distraught

Just get under it like you were told,

Just get over it.
