An Infamous Feeling.

It’s a virus to your sanity,
a sickness causing pain.
It’s fueled by your vanity,
Infecting all that’s in its way.

It’s a tidal wave of tension,
Swallowing everyone in its path,
Moving with raw intention,
Wanting all to feel its wrath.

It’s an eruption of your temper,
Sending assumptions in the sky,
Scolding you with its embers,
Believing everything you say a lie.

Denying all of your reasoning skill,
Void of your rational thought.
Trust begins to dry up and wilt,
A drought to the benefit-of-doubt.

It’s a thunderous emotion,
Right before the lightning strike.
The thought alone will cause commotion,
To act on it will cause your plight.

Jealousy…

you see, this is where your skill lies. Again, you let this bubble up from within, so of course it is worthy. But my feeling is that you can still grease it a little. This is the discipline of the craft. I should know, I'm an old hacker who usually writes something and never goes back to it. How much all those strokes would benefit by just some TLC? But I'm so stubborn to defend spontaneity. Whoa is me. Cheers brother. Keep up your passion. We all need it.
