Anger
by George J. Carroll → (All Poetry by George J. Carroll)

Anger is a passing fancy

When someone upsets us.

We strike back with words

That are meant to hurt.

 

Yet once time has elapsed,

You feel kind of foolish

For the things you said or did.

Human nature at its worst, Anger.

I have to agree; anything said or done in anger comes from the negative and the dark and sometimes, it is hard to undo the damage done. Love and peace to you, George.

Trying not to be angry,
But it comes hard for me,
Sometimes I just walk away & let it be,
And let it all come forth when walking near the sea...-e-

How true. Anger is of ten quickly followed by regret. Perhaps that we why people are now starting to talk about emotional intelligence. John

Anger is an emotion that is necessary sometimes. But, it is always better if one is very careful when using it to try to solve a problem.

Thanks for bringing anger to our attention. It seems that the news is always about someone's anger that went astray.

anger is the emotion which reflects the condition of the liver; so, it can damage the organ when it goes to extreme. On the other hand, it is utterly helpful at self-defence. A trivial but still interesting point. Cheers, alex
