Are you Mad?

You ill reputed emotion
anger.
I can barely harness you
w/o seeming amateurish
I sound shrill not frightening.
I'm disappointed, beat
and torn and waiting to
tell my therapist all about it.
The version I tell her will be
indignant and rational, not
annoying. But it's her job
to sit there and nod thoughtfully.
You're a shoddily used emotion
anger
To stifle myself I'll say nothing.
Being full w/you
is not satisfying.
I turn out only petulant not frightening.
