Predator

This rage I carry is heavy and raw

its battered and grotesque 

leaking blood like a picked at scab

the cause of it is murky and hidden 

but the feeling is clear

like a shrill scream 

its visceral and animalistic 

pawing at my temples 

snarling through the pure revulsion on my face 

it acts without mercy 

the predator can be suppressed but never controlled
