Memory is like history,
where there is no physical proof
for a thing, verbal assertion proves it.
All there is left to ask
is how much anger should we use
to convince the people we need
to believe us of what we assert?
Anger has been a valuable tool
for backing assertions for longer
than we have the ability to remember,
mostly because anger has erased
much of what we later have to get angry about,
to prove what was once there
before an older anger destroyed it.
I don't know what will outlast us.
I hope that anger does not ride on it.
and burn it out, then the anger
will have to find another carrier.
More reflective emotions are available.
