Anger begets anger

Anger begets anger rage begets rage
These games we play on this earthly stage

We all suffer hardships life has to offer
Adding our deeds to the celestial coffer

Do we tally our acts keeping a score?
Revenge for actions ever at the fore

We have many choices in the lives that we lead
We can follow the creator and abide by his creed

Let me be a warrior that fights for my race
No excuse for my actions let me do it with grace

Unite as a whole let us teach to the young
Relate old tales with songs to be sung

Relive with pride the hero's of the past
Gentle yet firm in the shadows they cast

Gather together speak slowly with great thought
With elders assembled there is truth to be sought

Anger and resentment are not the ways of my life
I will not pass on to my children anger and strife

I wish them life
