rage room
I was in a different city
a few weeks back
and saw a rage room
a shop that invited you
to come in a break things
through the open door
we saw drop cloths and
a stack of sledgehammers
as well as sheets of glass
plates cups and televisions
stuff that would shatter
once you paid your money
you put on the coveralls
and safety googles
grabbed a hammer
and started swinging
as though destruction
had some larger purpose
or maybe it was just
to blow off some steam
either way the damage done
never left the building
which is the illusion
damage breeds damage
next time you’ll want to
put holes in the walls
or maybe take a swing
at the shopkeeper
when you’re holding
a sledgehammer
everything looks like
something to break
just ask the president
he breaks stuff everyday
like he owns the place
and rage is his right
Peace,
Milton
Good one, Milton. ❤️
