Just Rage

Rage at the anger, rage at the spite. Rage at the evil that hides in the light. Rage at injustice, rage at the pain. Rage at the loss and rage at the gain. Rage at the rich while you rage at the poor. Rage at the doorman, who shows you the door. Rage at your husband, rage at your wife. Rage at the infinite limits in your life. Rage at the pardons, rage at the war. Rage at the after, and rage at before. Rage at the darkness, rage at the night. Rage ever on against the dying of the light. Just Rage.
