Anger’s Tempest
When Anger Finds Its Source,
One's inner clouds
Render cushions of comfort,
Rain becomes the cleansing internal sweat
An alarum asking to be understood.
Amidst ire’s duplicity,
Children might say,
"What happened?
These big people are so unpredictable.
Why are they so nice all of a sudden?"
Accepting healthy anger is resolve's first step,
Impressions accepted for what they truly are…
Impressions,
Points of view,
Recognition that differences of opinion
Needn’t be justification for unhealthy anger,
Known for its out-of-control nature.
Yes
When anger resolves its source,
Love/hate merges as one,
Salutary anger finding solace
In not seeking a desperate righteous anchor.
Suddenly…
Mutual consciousness awakens,
Recognizing differences merely
Layers of experiences
Vying for acknowledgment,
Not battle.
Interesting
The tempest threat
Without a fuse
This kind of bomb becomes
But a impotent temperament,
Never to ignite.
At the time of puberty with all of those hormones flaring, young people learn to lash out with anger over trivial things like disputes over who loves who. Overuse of that anger emotion over trivial items in everyday life is certainly detrimental to anyone's personal progress. Most people in jail have anger issues. Totally counterproductive. I have a little saying for myself. Don't get angry, get even. Good karma has remarkably solved many issues that I could have gotten very angry over.
