I’m terrified by the
Words,
Threatening.
To erupt.
An obscene alphabet-
Spewing,
From my chest -
Vitriol -
Like magma bursting,
With volcanic ferocity.
Obliterating any that cross -
Its path.
Molten,
Fury.
Churned underground,
Smouldering.
For a century past.
Fuelled by loss -
And defeat.
- And desire.
Waiting in the
Dark catacombs of the earth.
Words -
Bitter and toxic.
Dangerous.
I fear the damage they might do.
Not to you,
Of course,
Never.
But me.
