temper
temper
dear
I saw the lights flash
in your eyes
and knew
you were in trouble
out of control
mad
angry
spouting words
felt the hair on my own neck
rise
calm I reached for it
knowing
the flair wasn’t worth
the argument
flash fire
squirt of lighter fluid
how do I teach you
to reign in
how do I
when I hardly know myself
when I lose the power
to
squelch
the fire
of anger
temper
temper
the curse
long held
by the women of our clan
or maybe it is this very fire
that draws
the passion
out of our souls
insipid ~ never
hot tamales we are
forever
Great write. I wonder if I am a part of your clan...

Especially like "flash fire.."--seems to
