People may at times
rain on your parade
they may throw shade,
rant, rage, and rave
coming off as if half-crazed
but you can tune them out
& walk away
that’s perfectly okay

Sometimes, the things
we’ve said in an attack of anger,
brutal, bitter, black
the things we’d give anything
to take back
They eat at our conscience & heart
like a burning acid bath

It’s better to be silent
if you feel blood boiling rage
if you let words fly in
that moment, you may
regret what you say
if you need to, take a breather
write your thoughts out
or briefly walk away

Don’t hold too long to anger,
Be quick to forgive
& let Love abide in your heart
As long as you live

John Ray’s daddy was more than
a bit of a hot head
He’d scream & yell at times
till his face turned red
Punching walls till
his fisted fingers bled
John Ray said:
“man, I’ll never be that way,
Daddy, you scare me, you really gotta change
honestly if you don’t mind me saying
Sometimes you really seem kind of deranged“

He’d shaken his fists @ heaven,
for all the hell he had been through
but the more he thought about it,
in his heart the more that he knew
that all along, that had been
the wrong thing to do
So he dropped to his knees
& he began to pray
A sincere prayer of repentance that day
His rage was replaced with peace & faith
By:J.N.R Dutton
He keeps things bound
& bottled up, never really
setting them free
Until it all overwhelms him
& then the release comes explosively
Fierce, frightening & fiery,
like ignited TNT

These days many hate you
if you tell the truth
Especially if it challenges
their own point of view
They may spit rage,
but the bitterness they spew
reveals more about them
than it does about you
Act like you’re rubber
& they’re glue
Let their bitterness bounce off,
and keep doing what you do
