Old Yeller (or Young, for that Matter)

I found this on an article
about decluttering your life
from people who get you down.
Good advice.

Yelling is compelling if you like that sort of thing
but I do not. Verbal rot, I hate the quickening
of breath, that sickening inside when someone lashes
out with venom. If you want to see my back, the utter lack
of any action on my part? Then start to scream. Extreme
emotion isn't what I mind. I kind of get excited at enlightened
passion that's delightful or delicious, but a vicious tongue
is anyone's worst trait. At the moment, anyway,
it's certainly yours.
