Poem: Anger

Anger, building slowly becoming
Hatred, raging inside me
Angry at the world, angry at
My place in life
Angry at God for letting things
Get this way
Anger because of the confusion
That plagues me and clouds
My mind
But yet the anger
Is part of the fog
Part of the reason I can’t see
If I could clear the anger
Maybe I could see
Past the confusion and
Stop it
Use the anger in me to
Solve the problems, focus it,
Channel it, use it as
A source of energy
Instead of letting it
Drag me down
Turn it outward,
Instead of inward
In a positive way
Transform anger
Into clear
Thought and
Decisions, to
Clear a path forward and
Walk past the confusion
And bewilderment
