Verbal Harangue
Accidental words
fall out
like bloodied teeth
splattering the white pages red.
A rage
as startling as
jammed piano keys.
The overwhelming power
of an uncontrollable
verbal assault,
a heinous
personality flaw,
hits the face
like a swung
baseball bat.
And the toothless
mouth is left
with a hand
covering the silent pain
and dripping blood.
