Anger

The slightest wrong noise,

A sly look from a stranger,

The most random post on Facebook,

A snide remark from a coworker,

Waking up to bad weather,

Traffic when in a hurry.

*

It starts with a throbbing head;

Followed by the twitching of hands;

Teeth grind as they fight to stay quiet;

Knuckles are popped in preparation;

Eyes roll in constant annoyance;

Blood churns ready to explode.

*

Can't let it out,

Don't lose your cool;

Have to stay strong,

Be the bigger person;

It's not worth the trouble,

Take a deep breath.

*

What if you don't stop this time?

What happens when you finally explode?

Let out all your rage and see;

How bad could it possibly be?

What's the worst that can happen?

Maybe they do deserve it.

*

You need to be free,

Escape the ignorance,

No longer hold it in,

Not have to hide,

Say what you feel,

Let it all out.

*

NO!

Hold it in,

Keep your head down,

Stay quiet,

Don't lose control;

Consequences may happen.

*

Let Karma handle it,

It's not worth your time;

Don't get distracted,

Focus on what's right;

Don't let it control you,

Don't cloud your sight.

*

Aggression

Nuisance

Guilt

Explode

Rage

*

ANGER.
