My Name is Rage
Poetry by Jermont Cox

Hello, My Name is Rage!
I am an angry man.
They have managed to turn me into an animal!
I tried to fight them off, believe me, I tried my hardest.
There are so many unanswered questions in my mind.
Like: Who is it that I'm actually mad at?
Is it myself for getting into such an uncontrollable situation?
Or for allowing them to make me into this ball of Rage?
My body hurts so bad some days.
My heart boils and pumps lava through my inner functions.
My tears are streams of blood!
My rage is not a RAGE of violence!
Although sometimes I feel it might help to
Hit, kick or even curse out!
It frightens me that I'm this man of RAGE and ANGER.
I have never felt such a way in my life.
I can only pray that GOD helps me soon.
Hello, my name is RAGE. Please help me soon.
