Anger can be out of control.

Anger

by Brigitte Elko

Anger, the culprit inflicting many wounds
intentions absent, driven anger births rage
uncontrolled cruelty through words and actions
victims, random or chosen, matters not.

Anger, causing havoc on a freeway
victims, innocent travelers on life's journey
bloody bodies strewn on gray cement
blaring sirens fall on deaf ears.

Anger, fuming without reason
unbridled actions causing harm
rising from a depth within the angry
finding ways to calm their storm.
