William Blake's poem "A Poison Tree" describes how anger grows over time if kept inside rather than expressed. The speaker was angry with a friend and told them, ending the wrath, but anger with a foe grew as it was not expressed. The anger was nurtured in secret until it manifested as a bright apple tree, the fruit of which killed the foe when they stole into the garden.
