Elucidating Questions

If it is 9:30 on Canada Day morning (i.e. no rush hour)

And are already yelling at people to speed so you can turn faster

And are already squealing your tires around corners?

Either you and your anger management need to be taken off the road

Because you’re clearly not using it

Or you need to be on more mood regulation meds than I do

Isn’t it strange?

Oh I’m depressed by the state of the world

Here have some pills

I’m angry and dangerous

Here’s a big truck and some guns

Because surely giving an angry man a weapon of destruction will help

Right?

Luckily I’m less likely to meet an angry person with guns

But still

My eyes keep crying

Like there’s some secret they know I don’t

Cursed leaking eyes

My mind was occupied by him again

For a moment

Oh goodie more people showing up to my work place before it opens

There is so much anger in this world and yet they never tried to medicate it away

Sadness is apparently more dangerous

All I’m going to kill is myself

It’s anger that kills hundreds and thousands

And tens of thousands

It’s a wonder, really

That they don’t see anger as treatable

On your mind am I?

Do you have a mind?

Sorry that was a foolish question

More anger

Angry people should not be allowed to drive

There should be an anger test along with the driver’s test

Oh look some white men in caps blasting rap music

I don’t know

I just know people need to chill out

If I can be calm and collected

Yet screaming on the inside

So can you.
