I Am Angry


I Am Angry

I'm sad
I'm hurt
I am angry
Damn it
I'm angry, hurt and
I'm very sorry
For I realize
That hurt, anger and sorrow
will only serve to stifle myself
And alienate others
Must I persist in anger
Must I maintain this pain
But I wear the pain proudly
Proud anger held high
Chin up
A mad glint in the eye
A sneering grin
Pinpointed at a society
Glaring at the callous inequity
Of the mad system which holds us
With boldness and snarling derision
at any and all expressions of unity
Or tenderness
Or sharing
Or of actually caring about
One another
I am angry
