I was so mean and vindictive.

The anger started to come.

The persecution

of anyone around me was there.

I was so mean and vindictive

and I felt that it was right.

I felt the way that I felt

was perfectly fine, and if you

didn't like it, you could take a hike.

I didn't care.

My family actually would apologize

to wait staff at restaurants

before I said anything

because I would treat them so poorly.

That is not in my original makeup.

That is something that PTSD had given to me.
