angry zombie bite

sometimes I struggle to hide

the symptoms of anger that I hold inside.

like I have a zombie bite

hiding it, as if I have that right.

as if bottling up my anger doesn't hurt

those who I love, by not being overt.

I act as if being clear and communicating

would be bad, harmful, or aggravating.

I ignore my impact on the world around me

in hopes that my anger won't seep out, and become free.

We have all seen the movies, we have all groaned aggressively.

We all know that the person who hides their zombie bite fails. excessively.
