also.
i'm developing my own process for getting over my temper issues. the first step, i've found, is to do away with any euphemistic treatment of the matter. calling it "temper issues" or "short fuse" puts a cartoon face on it, that can be chuckled at and moved away from. and it is a much deeper and far less transient issue.
i'm incorporating elements from existing programs (/pogroms?) to try and relax the hell down. breathing exercises, meditation, introspection, frequent apologies. i would like people to point out when i'm being unreasonable, excitable, or exaggerating. my old policy of burn bridges now, swim later, is no longer appropriate. it's time to man up, calm down, react slowly with tact and grace, and rely more on my intelligence and less on my wit.
i'm sorry if i offended anyone, i promise i'm trying harder.

About Me
- DvE
My family does own some land where the river is wide
At night I see my memories dimly dying on the other side
I know that I am now all bitterness and tart
Anatomy to me is a homesick stomach and a broken heart
You rest-stops in the midnight are like friends I've worn to bone
I only notice that you're glowing when I'm feeling so ever alone
Drunken with the children now too many times to complain
Trustful was the mouth I turned into a lustful sopping hole and
Now it's nothing but a bathtub drain
The latter days are harder than I ever could've known
Come back to retrieve me sometime soon
If the latter days are ending then I hope I'm ending too
And buried someplace where your breath tastes new to me and
Always blowing, so my body's bent and bowing
Deep into the day's ending in summer
The latter days are always panting like a second-comer
