Yes, Miss Manners
I have no authority over my own self
I get angry, so angry I want to lash out,
to scream and hit and punch and kick
But, knowing that it is frowned upon, stops me
I smile, or at least keep my mouth shut.
It wouldn’t be right to make a scene, and
what does it help anyway?
Always be gracious and you will be treated kindly in return.
If not, just remember that those who treat others badly are
those that need your grace the most.
Yes, Miss Manners, although she was around before my generation, has
taught me well.
She holds me in check.
