Animosity
Rushing home,
one foot in
I look to the mirror.
My hands drop,
They squeeze and grab and pull...nothing.
My eyes roll upward with dread,
I fumble and scream,
My mind dark with hostility.
Disgusting, Useless, Vile,
I almost walk away, almost.
I decide to stand my ground on the street
and hope for the fat to walk away instead.
My hopes die as the light in my eyes fade
I plummet to the ground
Individual tears rush through the dark abyss of animosity.
