Red Hot

She is the girl

inside of me 

that is full of rage

and even I 

cannot embrace her

when she gets like this


the anger is as red-orange

as white

as the sword being hammered

on the forge

she will blister you

if you touch her 


and probably calling 

and texting her 

when the work day is done

is a mistake 


only a few of you

have learned the key

of quenching 

just hold her under the water

until the bubbles 

cease


usually she just 

burns herself out

when finally

all the fuel is gone.
