Even righteous anger needs to be controlled.

Righteous Anger

by HarryT

I feel a fire in my brain, kindled by people
Perceived as mean and an evil, perilous pain
I’m furious at the way selfish people conspire
Those hypocrites who lie for personal popularity
 
Encountering them my anger bursts into angry flames
As the blaze burns, I become frustrated and anxious
I know for my own good my outrage must be managed
When rage overtakes I know I must reestablish control
 
Foaming wrath makes me a less effective human being
As an angry person I now know I may make bad decisions
So, to diminish my devilish anger, I have found chanting a
Peaceful mantra helps me to think, relax, and calm down
