Nice! “Because”, is the perfect answer to why we write poetry. So many possibilities, reasons, inspirations behind that magical word. I agree with Damian. Very clever write, my friend.

Thanks for reading.
I am full of anger sometimes.

Yes I agree.
It’s better on the page than hurting yourself or others.
