Read the poem entitled "the poison tree" by william blake.

i was angry with my friend:
i told my wrath, my wrath did end.
i was angry with my foe:
i told it not, my wrath did grow.

and i watered it in fears
night and morning with my tears,
and i sunned it with smiles
and with soft deceitful wiles.

and it grew both day and night,
till it bore an apple bright,
and my foe beheld it shine,
and he knew that it was mine, —

and into my garden stole
when the night had veiled the pole;
in the morning, glad, i see
my foe outstretched beneath the tree.

Explanation:

"The Poison Tree" is a poem by William Blake written in 1794. The speaker uses the growth of a tree as a metaphor for his growing anger. If not expressed, anger has a destructive power. When bottled up and fed, anger grows larger and affects not only the person who feels it, but also those around them. In the poem, the speaker's anger toward his enemy bears fruit and ends up killing his foe. What is most startling about it is the fact that the speaker does not seem to mind his enemy's death at all. It's as if his suppressed anger has killed his ability to empathize.
