WITHDRAWAL

rage pours out through my pores


withdrawal pains

from a change of heart and mind


a new view

that acts as an inoculation


against the harm of people

and the world as it is


flushing the soul and feeling

more sinful and lost as the pus of the past drains...


cold turkey for the spirit

that sees the world clearly


and cannot believe what it sees...

and the calm afterward when rage is emptied


and regret is bittersweet....
