That Other Fury

a poem about an angry person

She's that other Fury

The one who takes vengeance

For things which happen

Only in her mind

Where no trespass exists

She creates one to "find"

So she can justify

Being so unkind

She's that other Fury

Whose vengeance is blind

Anger, in my opinion, doesn't help most situations... it only leads to darkness and fear... it covers the light and hurts the heart...one should not find an excuse to be angry... it only clouds our minds and leads to separation.... of what is good about a person... Vivid words to portray this piece...
