Write about a word
It can be anything you want, from happy to sad to throwing chairs against a wall.
Temper
Mine is a shotgun
Waiting...slow...
Only a couple barrels of ammo
Packed with the birdshot
Of a thousand pecks and jabs
Holding it in
Until finally the trigger pulls
and BAM!
@#!$ you
Yours is a submachine
Constant, steady
An endless supply of small frustrations
Spitting out anger
Into anything that crosses your path
Never ceasing
Until finally the clip empties
and click
<reloads>
I couldn't love an unarmed person
Your temper keeps it fair
Makes us stronger
Because expectations make us angry
And so long as I expect
And you expect
More
Then all we have to do my love
is learn to
aim.
