insanity.
repeating patterns + hoping things will turn out differently.
they used to lock insanity away, call it hysteria, set it on fire.
 
so we consume the flames. 
again and again.  moments large and small.
patterns.
mostly unseen.
like thread weavings in the fabric, holding it all together.
 
we think we know rage, we’ve seen it portrayed
the shape, the color, the sound.  the script prewritten 
 
a prop to hold
a distraction, an attempt to redirect
an inconvenience.
 
but hysteria is without competence, it won’t stand.
 
no
this rage
 
is quiet.  it’s tactful.
 
it’s complex, expansive, uncharted
 
this rage is malignant
accumulates as heat 
like mercury stored in visceral matter.
 
and all matter has a flashpoint.
