Why do people succumb to anger?


thoughts

It feels so easy to slip into its grasp. But at the same time, from a distance, it looks quite stupid. Aren't we overreacting? What's the point of hitting one another, yelling at one another, going to war with one another? Yet when are up close, immersed in anger, we feel nothing but blissful rage, if that makes sense. Sweet revenge empowers us. Makes us feel as if we are at the top of the world. Maybe it is a survival mechanism. But I sure wish it weren't.
Expectations

Please let me,
Don't let me
Please let me,
Don't let me
Please,
No.
Please,
No.

Unsure what to expect,
Unsure whether to expect at all.

So I sit,
stare blankly,
and do something else.
Like a FRQ.
