THE DANCE OF ANGER--It's All The Rage
"No one heals himself by wounding another." Ambrose
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Walk left. Walk right. Walk around in circles.
Slowly pace around the room. Hear the rhythm.
Anger is like a slow dance. Catch the beat.
Dance. Dance. Dance. Do the dance of anger.
The rhythm builds. The beat grows stronger.
Dance across the floor of locked-up emotions--
Fists clenched, eyes ablaze, adrenaline coursing.
Dance. Dance. Dance. Do the dance of anger.
The dance of anger, raw and explosive,
Undulates to the tune of unresolved hurt, pain, and sorrow.
Steps are now swift, movements bold.
Dance. Dance. Dance. Do the dance of anger.
The dance of anger, now wild and uncontained.
Nostrils flaring, a guttural roar, pushing and shoving,
Throwing and kicking, becoming violent, exerting control.
Stop!” she pleads. “Stop! Stop the dance of rage!”
