Analysis of Volcano Steve



Sometimes my temper is so bad,
I want to break and tear
Whatever thing has made me mad
And greatly needs a prayer!

Sometimes it's thoughts about my past
With much anxiety,
Led by depressive thoughts that last
And still jump hard on me!

I can't control volcanos nor
Undo the damage done,
Including self-esteem and more.
The things I can't out run!
