n.b. I don’t know about you, but counting to keep my temper never works…in fact I usually just feel more frustrated 😉

I usually get in my car and swear at the top of my lungs. When I can, anyway. Works for me. When I can…

Ah, yeah, probably is a man thing. Then, there is poetry. Got my start in poetry because of anger. Anger has its benefits.

Lol very creative! I’ve never tried counting to control my temper, but I rarely ever lose my temper. I can get a little snappy if I’m really grumpy though. Great poem! 🙂

Don’t usually lose it myself, but they always say count to ten before you react. The times when I’ve been really grumpy by the time I got to ten I was furious…therefore the title tempering temper 😉
