Don't Make Me Angry

Sometimes I get off on a rant. This is what happens when I do. Not exactly the best poetry I'm sure. Oh well, it was fun to try.

Would you do me a favor?

And help with these words I belabor.

As much as I don’t care,

They apparently do not share,

My disgruntled appeal,

The words and the will,

Which fails to be heard,

Even if I step into my word.

 

I wish they would all leave,

Before I start grinding my teeth,

At all those who don’t care

If my argument is fair.

Never before have I felt,

That this hand would be dealt,

Upon me it has fallen,

My anger is all swollen.

 

To the top of my lung,

I shout with my tongue,

If they give me more lip,

I am sure I will let slip,

The words I belabor,

Upon my near neighbor.

Go away you old fool

I am no longer your tool

 

It is hard to be staging,

These words I’ve been raging,

Please, please you must leave,

Before you give me a peeve

This will not stand

How you’ve knocked me to land.

I’m definitely pissed now,

Do I dare show you how?

There is the angry side in all of us, some just contain it better. Takes practice. Valentine

Sometimes it's better to let it out, than contain it. Letting it out does not mean it has to be destructive. The words are as powerful a way to get anger out as anything. Knowing when to contain it and when to let it out and how, that takes practice as well.

Deep down I'm not a people person & I love living alone in the wilderness. That being said, I am minimizing my opportunities to go off on people the way you do here . . . warning of your hair trigger & inability to suffer fools. I love this message. I might need to write one of my own, as to why I prefer furry friends to the two-leggeds. Your rhyming is strong & your anger is not gritty, but a little tongue-in-cheek, which makes this a fun read, altho a warning!

The reality is that I have mellowed out significantly over the years. This was written more in fun than anything else.

Being an introvert, I tend to avoid interactions that can cause me to be this kind of person. However, I am also at a point in my life where this kind of anger no longer serves me. Doesn''t mean that I don't find the occasion to go off on someone. I resist the urge though.

You wouldn't like me when I'm angry.... Grrrrr! The monster waits in us all, for a chance to come out, doesn't it? ;)

[Chris A Jones]

Yes, I suppose it does.
