A Walk In Rage Poem by Theodora (Theo) Onken

These days
It doesn't
Take much
To disagree
While many
Speak of
Hate & violence
If you disagree
An argument
Usually ensues
Oft' times
Escalating into
Rage
And into a
Fight
Of cataclysmic
Proportions
With domino effect
Leading to
Violence
When violence
Has it's
Ugly, ugly way
It destroys
Leaving nothing
But remnants
Of human beings
Once peaceful
Who lost it
In the moment
And chose to
Walk in rage
Instead...
