It slowly eats away,
bits of my intestine, heart and veins
but most of it, my brain...
Anger, which part of me
did you nibble today?

About Me
- Gauri Gharpure
- A bundle of contradictions who needs enough sleep and food to keep in the chirpy mood that I usually am in. Have worked as a stringer, a copywriter and as a content writer in that order since I was in college. Currently immersed (come up for air occasionally) in the 10-month M.S program at Columbia University, Graduate School of Journalism 2012. Studying on a Fulbright grant. Look forward to a career in writing, teaching and perhaps, junk jewellery that i make...
Want to Haiku too?

Hello Gauri,
Thanks for the comments :)
But your poetry is wonderful :)
continue writing so many things :)
such a disease it is, anger, and always leaves impulsive folks like me in a mood of regret. yet, i have always felt it a useful tool too - if used appropriately. get angry, but don't get affected by it.
wow!!!
beautiful!
mam your stumble is not working. plz check that and plz do visit my blog
Dharma-- Talk abt anger and being impulsive-- regretful combination. I eat when I am angry, nothing else helps, except sleep, maybe :)
Anonynmous-- Wow!! not often that I get mysterious visitors like you. You made my day, yay! ha ha ha... be back soon... and thnks so much!
