9/12/2004


Circumstances
are such
that
anything might
set me off
the trigger
releasing
a flow of
unleavened malice
into my bloodstream
making me
a danger
to anyone
around me
loved ones
becoming
embodiments of
their
worst shortcomings
deserving
what they get
and
lying in bed
with
the lights off
I am ready to be
this
venomous person
forever.
