I DID NOT WRITE IN RAGE <br /> <br />I did not write in rage <br />And seek a name in righteous anger <br />I did not know how to hate <br />Not enough <br />And to curse <br />Almost not at all <br />I did not know how to make my pain <br />Revenge and Bitterness <br />The Fury of the most Destructive feeling- <br /> <br />I was too calm <br />And too quiet <br />And too eager for Peace <br />And Time to be let alone in- <br /> <br />I did not enter the world as a warrior <br />And I conquered nothing <br />Oh what a poor old weak nice guy I have been <br />Without the Rage of Greatness <br />Or the Fury of the Monstrously Powerful Soul.<br /><br />Shalom Freedman<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-did-not-write-in-rage/
