Rage



how does a shrink help you
deal with Rage?
does he tiptoe around
picking d e l i c a t e l y in your mindbowl of fishhooks?
or does he question softly
hoping conversation makes you mild-er?
needling within to know cajoling trespassing
childhood trauma
dysfunctional families
fickles loves lost or
divorce?
i'll help you deal with your anger within
cocktail of drugs for mocktail of life
furious frustrations and counting to ten
who knows when a sick mind will snap?
