Anger 2....... What Does It Do? Poem by Jayatissa K. Liyanage

With something, some one else does
you yield to your own emotions, and
leave open all doors, windows, vents
and gates of your spiritual mansion
To whom? ............ just watch.
Who walks in, in procession?

Moodiness, intolerance, annoyance, fury, rage
Hatred, enmity, hostility and stupidity
They all behave rudely, irrationally, and unlawfully.
Irritating, annoying, grinding and robbing you of
Happiness, peace in mind, mindfulness,
courage, endurance, determination, efficiency.

They bust up your social accord, esteem,
decorum and even your wealth in no time.
They don’t stop at that, but cherish
seeing you being insane.
