my problem with this piece is that the title is definitive, but the poem itself is...limiting. like others have said, there are other forms of rage, or if not other forms, since this doesn't seem to deal with forms, then other reasons behind it. so it doesn't really reach out to me as a truism -- more clever(ish) wordplay meant to express the speaker's whatever at the moment. and at the moment, this reader ain't much enjoying.
or maybe it's a comment on how the world is actually a constant state of hate, and not being enraged is a form of repression? but that sounds kinda stupid, especially in this sociopolitical climate -- actually, in any sociopolitical climate, unless this were a winding-refn film. *shrugs*
