Devilish Anger



You know me, although you don't want to
I've been here since the beginning of time
I will be here after you

I'm powerful
like a herd of raging bulls
I'm influential
I can make a person do things
They never thought they would

I can make siblings fuss and fight
A husband murder his wife
I can make someone kill many

Then take their own life   

I cause Robbers to rob banks
and terrorist to blow up planes
I can turn a Preacher into a crook
When he used to be a saint
I can make the President start a war
When Peace is what he stood for
I cause students to kill their classmates
Because school is a bore
I make employees go postal
When fired without a notice

Listen!!
I never finish last
I can make the high-class change residence
From the Burbs to Alcatraz
I have the power to control all
Try to deny me and I guarantee one day you'll call

I'm qualified - the best at what I do
My resume is longer than the Nile River
I am experienced to control you with emotions and feelings
So admit it! I am the best!

But if you listen carefully
I will tell you secrets to my success
I'm smooth I get into your brain
I will make you think you need me
to express your inner feelings

I'm courageous I like to work alone, but if
I need a Partner Rage is who I'd phone
The Truth?
Without you I could not do what I do
If you did not allow me I could not control you
I am weak
I need you to succeed
But I will have your mind twisted and you will think differently

The biggest mistake most people make
Is thinking they can defeat me alone
They fail, because they don't realize
They need the Most High to hold on to
I win!
Making them all look like fools

They take the blame while I roam streets
searching for another soul to rule

You know me; although, you don't want to
I been here since the beginning of time
Trust me
I will be here long after you

Anger makes people do & say crazy things. In an instant. Some that can never be taken back. If only people would take the time to breathe. To write it down & get it out of their system. Before it overcomes them. I look forward to reading your poetry in the future.

Thanks for reading and comment.

A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
