Gut wrenching crap

You wake up everyday,drag yourself all the way to the shower and groan it out during breakfast. Chewing on a piece of bread like a cow on cud, you finish 2 slices after eternity. Then comes the coffee. Its either too black or too weak and never just right. You try to do something but boredom creeps its way in and throttles you till its time for lunch. 2 hours later, you're too sleepy to be doing anything and nap it up. When its time to get up, half the day is gone, but there's still time for that "coffee" you love. Finishing it in one giant gulp, you start your work. There's a significant amount done before dinner is announced and as is with meals, you're first at the table. That over, you sweat out more than you had bargained for that day finishing it off at around 2 am, all the while gritting your teeth over irritating matters of no importance that seemed very life threatening at that time.
Baring your fangs(sorry teeth), lashing out at the phone or anything handy enough to be thrown at the innocent smile of a 3-year old kid who stares back at you as if every damn thing in his perfect world is fine. You start hurling abuses at that mad kid in the poster, at your computer screen, at the dumb freecell game that you couldn't win and thus brought up the lost streak count to 12. Even the usually not-so-funny forwards seemed very insulting and the usual do-till-i-die hobby of messaging has lost its fun. Oh, it so has. And when people don't realize this, it sparks a something. Medieval-like in its battle spirit and as immature as that kid you hate, it crops up. And that feeling of having defeated someone in a verbal matter is so soothing to that monster inside you.
It controls you in the heat of passion and in the dourest of times. Like it? Just love it. Hate it? More than the slimiest anthropod. Can't live with it, can't live without. Looking back on it all, do not blame it on "situation","circumstance" or "hormones". Deal with it, its the monster YOU created by channelling all that you hated into one massive black hole. Its upto you to warp its dimensions, cut its fangs, suck out the poison, fix up a smile and face the world.Who knows, yours maybe a cute cat compared to someone else's dragon. And you know what they say, never tickle a sleeping dragon.
