Tantrum
A grown-up in a hissy fit
Is something to behold.
I’ve always thought that as we age,
Such outbursts are controlled.
But sometimes people pop the cork
And let their rage explode,
So others get to witness them
In full-blown tantrum mode.
I guess it’s true that we regress
And lots of marbles lose,
But what a sight when someone old
Acts terrible as twos!
