Sue Mason Poet Couplet

Ranting and Writing

Anger spills out
with a great shout

from this pen at times
as it looks for rhymes

that make some sense
without pretense,

but its only anger that spills
and my heart it fills

for the madness in a life
full of war, ever in strife.

While loving words may be said,
deeds leave only more dead

either in a war a world away
or drunks out on the highway

its ever decay and death
leaving anger on my breath.

Its a new year and a new day,
wish it truly felt that way

but for some UnGodly reason
only a rage pen writes the season.

Joyce Johnson January 4, 2010 at 3:19 PM Yes poets send messages with anger as well as all of the other emotions. Interesting slant. Thak you for your comment on my poem "What pain". I wrote that ten years ago this next month, shortly after my adult son died. He was my only son and a joy to raise.That was one of the first poems I ever wrote and I have been writing only since that time. Love, Joyce

P Sheart January 3, 2010 at 3:05 PM Anger serves a worthy purpose sometimes especially when it comes to telling it like it is. Nothing like a rebel with a cause in my book!! Thanks for your welcome comment on Intuitive Eyes. I will have to look up Marcus you have me intrigued! smile.....Love Light Patty

Carol Sunshine Brown January 2, 2010 at 2:30 PM WOW You go girl. You hit the nail right on the head Sue. Love, Carol

Kim Hilliker January 2, 2010 at 6:34 AM I know what you mean sometimes. Nice write, very clever.

David Byrne January 1, 2010 at 11:29 PM You have described the universal in the particular..well done!

Audrey Haick January 1, 2010 at 9:33 PM In a world such as ours, Sue, you'd have to be living in a bubble not to feel this way. Great job, well-written! Peace and love, Audrey Happy 2010!

Sara Kendrick January 1, 2010 at 3:17 PM Get it out and if you have to throw it away. This was a great write on something that we all face. They say that there only two emotions fear and love. Jesus said that perfect love casteth out all fear. So if there is anger there is fear in there somewhere. We just have to find out where it lies. Keep the magical and creative pen flowing. Sara
