Explosion
A violent atmospheric expansion
A bursting forth of noise
A sudden polluting of the air
Without sensitivity or care
Or concern for being fair
A loud sharp sound
Where no love can abound
Followed by your friend's frown
And a raising of the eyebrows
By all those around
Be it privately with family
Or with strangers in town
Perhaps such could have been avoided
If you'd just have sat down
But the Explosion has already occurred
Having gone unabated
Now others are jaded
Worn out and broken down
By the vicious sound
Yet you're not that bad of a person
You just need to learn a life lesson
Think before you speak
Breathe before you blow up
And fine tune the tone
Before you talk
Lest others leave your presence
Consider going for a walk.
Implosion
Bursting inwardly
Collapsing from within
In such a circumstance
Nobody does win
For you withhold
Your emotions and feelings
While your internal world
Is irritated and reeling
Though you're ready
To hit the ceiling
You play it cool
Yet within
Feel like a fool
Or grow embittered
By the situation
Get hostile toward people
Staggering within
While your emotions
Whirl around
You try to hide it
With a sheepish grin
Yet your voice emits
A different sound
A withdrawal
A distance
A suspicious hesitance
With an evident resistance
Which can only be overcome
With inquisitive persistence
Until all be brought into the light
And there be declared an armistice
Ah, now isn't that better?
Then why the delay?
Why didn't you just go ahead
And let yourself say
What you felt
The interaction dealt
Inedible spelt
A communicative spout
That made you want to
Violently shout
And let it all out.
Neither Explosion nor Implosion
Is perfect or right Prefer communication and Reconciliation
Which puts out the fight
Lest relational Erosion
Become your intolerable plight.
Be not dismayed
By an adversarial exchange
Which you can graciously rearrange
With a little understanding and elegance
As you acknowledge and honor
The other individual and their interest
Therefore do not hastily resort to defiance
Instead employ your own brilliance
To build a worthy alliance.
