How Best To Engage Your Outrage
I am...
Outraged.
Livid.
'That's great.
That's good to hear.
Unfortunately...
It's a little late for that display,
To find sympathizers to lend an ear.
You see those people,
Sitting patiently over there?
They too had similar sentiments.
Feel free to join them.
I am sure they will share with you,
How best to engage your 'outrage'...
Into a more fulfilling 'enrage'.
One that is better suited for these times.
And don't worry about that lividity...
It will help to exercise the rolling of eyes!
And...
Don't forget to take a number,
Before you are called to stand...
Amongst those dumbfounded,
With a numbing they are trying to overcome...
In the unemployment line.
Oh...
Before I forget.
If you wish...
Feel free to join others down that hall.
They are smoking.
Those are the ones who arrived here,
Upset and appalled!
Next! '
