This work has reached the exceptional level
Angry words can be poisonous.

Venom

by Jodi Ann Anderson


The author has placed a warning on this post for violence.
Anger builds...
Manifests...
Explodes...
Spews hateful words that pierce, with needle-sharp fangs releasing poison like a venomous snake,
As the angry words course through the body they cause instant destruction...
Stinging, burning,
Biting back with hurtful words hurts more...
Screaming, crying,
Wounds are evident.
Heated flesh with gaping holes,
Furious and gloomy eyes leaking bloody tears,
Draining and lifeless, the hate finally fades away and anger begins to wane as fangs retract,
Normalcy somewhat returns...
Silence.
