Premium Member THE BEAST STILL LINGERS
The thunderstorm slows, the rain abates There is that eerie wind, then silence that follows like a stray dog and you remember screaming as the rain poured in cursing, every curse you knew. And now all is silence, a steady drip in the kitchen And the raving maniac that you became is quiet, the fire forgotten for now But like the storm the...

Smash and Grab

But then he returns. He’s here. Does he always or merely often think he's now had a smashing event - though only at times? Or can he be...

Temper Tantrum and Wanting Attention
Subject: Temper Tantrums Give someone having a temper tantrum an inch and they will take a mile's worth of attention. You cannot kill the same dead horse twice or shoot a six shooter a seventh time without reloading it. Remember this. When you either complain or condemn or criticize an opponent you are doing the same to their supporters and constituents, family members, church...

A Handiwork of Short Temper
As a hurting song is being sung, At a white polo shirt is flung What can have been a cow’s dung And on same it foully clung And on a nearby face hung; All a hurried indiscreet challenge By one refusing to change, As though it is beyond his range, The idea pointblank strange Or one’s denial of a sweet orange! At last, the...

Premium Member Curse Words
We sing “Holy is thy name, O Lord,” Yet attach it to every unsavory word Then euphemizing, we say “gall-durn,” It seems like we will never learn!

Energy is in the sky Lightning flashes by An angry sword Nature’s electric chord Is it a show?

Premium Member Tyranny of Temper
It was the first time in years the four of them had been all together. “Hey, do ya’ll know the riddle of the sphinx?” “This should be our family version.” “What pouts in the morning, laughs at noon, and cries in the evening?” “That’s an easy one, our mother.” “Or how about this one, what praises you in the...
