Cutely written poem with a powerful message...love it sincerely, especially as it can be applied to so many persons: My other other perspective if you don't mind is: In it you are discouraging the anger component in one's personality, therefore you would not have needed to add word "sissy"...because the first three lines would have given the reader who may have this trait to have a deeper reflection ... Great Poetry ! Thanks for exchanging your views on anger in such a creative way!...
