Trapped in a ceaseless fever of spite,

an unending fit of resentment and anger

Caught in a moment of unforgiveness

In the snapshot of a hate filled second



The speechless flickering of uncomprehending eyes

Dilated in disbelief

Your vacant gaze distorted

Twisted in its accusing glare



Teeth glimmering in emotional rage

Spit of hate suspended in mid-air

Bodies strained in fury

Devoured by jaws of despair



One single image frame I wish to forget

now replayed in succession of millions

The one second I will always regret

My hell found in its reiteration



Held within the visualization,

the continuous rerun of my own violence

A fraction of time perpetuated

By my regretful soul animated



Please forgive the evil in me - The darkness within

Ferocious, inherent demon. Adrenaline gland resident



Threatened subconscious snake.

Repressed into striking coil

Surfacing that black second.

Ascending with the boil
