Anger

Anger

A Poem by Shalini Dinesh



























The body outwardly seen as ice-clad mountain,

Deep within residing the lava anger,
Broken words forms fissure in thoughts,
The fissure deepens and grows stronger!

A conduit from mind to tongue is formed,
The tongue gives vent to words,
Thinking of nothing else,
The words are thrown like swords.

When anger reaches summit,
People do not think of what to do or speak,
Wildly ending up in actions
And words that are mostly reek!

The anger in human volcano,
Turns from streaks to bands,
In wild hatred or physical pain,
Is where it usually lands!

To realize it “No gain but just pure pain”
Which men usually miss out-
Rather just adds a big "D" in front of
Every little anger, that burns out.




** a few of the readers might end up in a doubt what actually that "D" means, its nothing but, anger leads to "D"anger  , now you can read it together "Danger", so every time you get annoyed just think of  "D".

Amazing poem

What a very proverbial poem you've written here. Yes, better is the wise man who knows when to be quiet :) I like how you've given us this image of a volcano to symbolize this mounting anger and I love the word play at the end for anger and "danger". Very clever of u........

I had that figured out straight away....ummm...from experience of life.
A great message; well written and thought out.

Powerfully spoken, giving us glimpse after glimpse of the dangers of anger (and a bit of a word play too)! Anger, revenge and such deeply cut into the well-being of us all, blinding us to love, life, and joy... Thank you for the profound poetic warning!

Clever on danger and anger. :D

Yes, I like the sensory image on this one. I only wonder though if that volcano could ever become dormant. :)) Just a thought. For technicals, I like your rhyming scheme. Flow is brought out really well.

Job well done!
