Poetry Day: Wrath Rondelet

Posted on July 31, 2025 by Charles Yallowitz

(A rondelet is a 7-line poem where the first line is repeated on line 3 and 7.  The refrain lines are usually 4 syllables and the other 4 lines are 8.  These were tough, so I hope I got them right.)

Is Wrath your sin?

Do you rage with every slip?

Is Wrath your sin?

Anger is your natural phase.

Without it you are lost and scared.

Looking for a reason to snap.

Is Wrath your sin?

    There seems to be more wrath going around.

    I would rather avoid the wrath of others.
