Outburst




Words are
Shimmering, simmering, glimmering
On the tip of my tongue.
Effervescent
Burbling bubbles 
Ready to burst upon the blue.

Some words 
Spoken too soon 
Are sour; simmering
Makes them sweeter.
So
I swallow.

Beautifully written. Made me think of how I need to wait before I react more.
