Analysis of Rage



I rage
My life is a silent scream
Inside
Is where I hide
The unspoken promise
Of a dream
Outside
I can't abide
Coffee with no sugar
Or cream
A full head of steam
I rage
The impossible dream

Rowine Conley

Writing is not something I do--it's something I am. I have been a wordsmith since before I could write. I have now written 2 novels, 6 children's books, several short stories, and boxes full of poetry. I am now disabled but I still have a day job.
