ANGER

And when anger came
the clouds grew gray
and the fury arose from within.

Quickly it built into
an intensity of rage,
as the scope of the injustice unfolded.

How could they dare perpetrate such an
atrocity
while others around me
who saw the same
Seemed less affected
because their belief
was not as intense
and had not been violated.

Yet for me the rage was real
and would not leave
until the violators
could be punished.

Must it come from me
this vengeance I felt
or from the Ultimate in His judgement
But how can I release
the intensity of the fury in an acceptable
solution empowered to me?
Until then
there appears no rest
for my overcharged system.
