#212/366--Breaking Things

I have
a confession

I am not
who you think
I am

I know
I come across
quiet
and
reserved

but

sometimes
things
make me angry

and

when I'm angry
I turn green
grow immense muscles
growl
yell
and
scream
my head spins
I vomit pea soup
curse words fly

...and...
I break things

...well...
that's an exaggeration

I didn't intend to
...break it...
I was emphasizing
a point
by
"slamming it closed"

but
the integrity
of the drawer
was
already weakened
by poor craftsmanship
and
in my defense
it was already
hanging by
...a nail...

...next time...
I'll
...count to 10...
take a time out
breathe deeply
close my eyes
walk away

...maybe...
