Words Hurled In Anger

A free-verse poem about speaking while angry.

Angry words …
Caustic words spewed forth
from a churning cauldron of emotion,
words that burn the ears
and sear themselves deep
into the recipient’s memory.
Loud, mean words
that explode like streaming lava
upon their victim.
Words of excess
that fill the air
without thought or control;
volatile, impetuous utterances
that can never be erased,
even if soon regretted.
Angry words …
words best never spoken.
