Fury tells me what to do, not the other way around As I decide whether to speak, its quiet fingers twist me My oral wound bleeds for my profit, and "justified" is bait.

When we allow fury to decide what to do, we are heading to doom. We have to fight over rage and subdue it. Great Sijo !

Yes, someone enraged is being told how to behave by the hate and anger that is coming from the hate. Sad that some of the ones that are acting out on hate could not sit back and have a cooling down period and work it all out without someone getting hurt or killed. Thank you for sharing this one and for dropping by my pages. Sara
