Where can the anger go?

But where can the anger go
When the abuser cannot see it?
I could scream and shout
I could write a whole treatise
Detailing in plain language
My pain
And how you caused it

I could sing it
Paint it
Wrap it in a poem
I could slam it
Grime it
Dance it
I could sculpt it
Express it as a dish
Or a garment

I could spend years
Exhausting my energy on it
And still you would not get it

What’s the point of getting mad
At a rabid dog
A crushing wave
A rock standing in the way?
You are what you are
All I can do is stay away
And carve for my anger
A channel
A way

  • Yes yes yes, nod nod nod
  • How much of you is what
  • Don't do admiration
  • Nothing really belongs to me
  • Perfect people
  • The 5th dimension
  • The broken ones
  • Sorry you're not sorry
  • Call off the wild
  • Where can the anger go?
  • Adrift
  • This is not procrastination
  • 21st century haikus
  • Nothing
  • Paralysed
