Step Off
My Rage is in its cage
My ire not quite a fire
Like a thistle I bristle
I’m worked up not fucked up
I am at the station for aggravation
Hot under the collar but I don’t holler
Under my skin I do not make a din
I will not enhance my annoyance
My exasperation is like constipation
I am irate that you clearly irritate
I choke as you deliberately provoke
but my rage stays in its cage
My rage got out of the cage
I am on the path to wrath
My anger no longer a cliff-hanger
I’m fixated on being infuriated
I have the fury of a hanging jury
I must engage my enrage
It’s no longer badness, it’s madness
Mind and body tensed and incensed
I am now a despotic, psychotic
My mind is hazier, I am crazier
It’s all gone south I’m foaming at the mouth
I can't get my rage back in the cage

She peeks cautiously around the corner...
Fierce write here, my friend. I don't know who set off your rage-o-meter but I sure hope it wasn't me! Sending hugs and more hugs...and even more hugs!

David my friend...whoever stepped into your comfort zone and caused such distribution to your chi is insane....fucking with a Highlander is a most erroneous move...excellent vent and each word is felt with the most intensity...breathe my friend...a fairy is sitting on your shoulder and is holding on tight!

I am normally the calm and collected one you could even poke me with a stick and call me a cunt and get no response. but some things are beyond the pale - any man who strikes a woman deserves payback - I used to box, I don't need legs to kick the shit out of somebody - anyway I am calm now :-) thank you - huge big hugs :-)

David, without any doubt, what so ever, you are definitely a mighty force to be reckoned with...approaching very slowly...and with extreme caution!
My friend, as with most of your more personal penings, something extremely intense, or unjust, has to occur, in order to send you into such a fit of rage! And the seething, red-hot fury of your anger is so clearly felt throughout this entire piece! The person that caused your inner-beast to be released, had better be searching for an immediate escape--to be certain!
( see your fingers...see your thumbs....see your fists...he/she better run!!! ) (lol)
This piece packs a powerful punch-- both symbolically, and, quite possibly, literally--if this person is foolish enough to continually fuck with your fierce Scottish ire! Inhale (deeply) : 1..2..3...Exhale (slowly) : 1..2...3....and repeat-- while enfold you in tight, calming hugs..... :)

no, I am a pussy cat really - it was inspire by my wife being assaulted by a shop keeper and it takes something as serious as that to bring the rage to the surface :-) I am trying those breathing tasks as we speak - every time I think about it it bubbles back up :-(# As always thank you for your kind words and understanding :-) Huge Big Hugs :-)))))))))
