Since we call ourselves civilized
Violence is wrong, we’ve realized
But we are still humans, and need to express
Our anger and frustration, that we tend to dress
In layers of words coated with saccharine
Polite words, disguising intentions mean
Don a fake smile and pretend to be friends
Then look to destroy them under some pretense
Apologize in a tone of exaggerated sincerity
Then turn back and blame others with temerity
This passive-aggressive behavior widespread
Where actions display bitterness unexpressed
At this craft, we seem to be getting better
Polite in words, but nasty in other ways that matter
When passive aggression comes to forefront
Passion...unbridled
