Rush to Anger

‘Do not rush to Anger’

Reads the motto on the wall.

Just like pride

Anger often comes before a fall.

Slow to anger squeezes reason,

Yields a sweeter drink.

More time to consider choices,

Much more time to think about

Alternatives, the fruit of genius,

Wisdom free to roam.

Intricate decisions that are

Like to find a home.

Telling tales and

Ringing bells you

Might have never heard if

You chose to rush to anger

Without sounding out the word.
