Anger Memorial Poem by Doris Cornago

Anger Memorial

Rating: 4.8


Madness is a sorry disaster when unfettered
Irresolute, don't be destitute, confused
Such ignominy destroys sweet harmony
Wreckage lies awaiting resolution
In the flurry of his breathing
Comes a vision of steel
Arising out of the
Far horizon
Tentacles
Eight
Of
Them
Inching
Up to me
Convolution
Razor sharp like
Scissors, snipping at
Me in anger, ripping my
Bonds, eight brains working
Questioning reasons, deduction
Quizzing, madly articulating words
Logical versus illogical, wounds opened
Slash, slash, such a verbal clash, rage alas!

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
A heated verbal battle with a genius is like trying to win a battle with 8 tentacles of an octopus, each armed with a brain. Choose your battle and don't get on the wrong side of a temperamental genius with your irresolute words.

There was a glitch which caused the bottom portion to be bolded and go up one line destroying the beautiful k pattern but then as I sought to repair, I resisted thinking such is a good illustration of what a havoc anger creates. It wouldn't have been such a mess if the white flag was hoisted before the carnage.

I agree, Bro Bernard, but sometimes anger makes us lose composure, that's why it's a memorial.
