Behold, it came to pass that I, Nephi, did cry much unto the Lord my God, because of the anger of my brethren.
2 Nephi. 5:1
anger takes me places I don't want to go
but feel obligated to visit anyways
and when it seems righteous
it becomes more vicious
and cold
when anger falls on to me unbidden
my faith wants to shrink
into a timid shell
and stay there
weeping
the world is an anger-diseased place today
Lord save me from contagion
and help me to forgive
and vaccinate
my heart
