my disagreeable side
when a zillion contradictions build up in my head
and i festinately need to drain them out
(i could sit tight and nibble them back instead
but that gives one crossed brows and a pout)
then i rant and rave and bark and bray,
to any passer-by who'd lend me an ear,
and kvetch and gripe, much to their dismay
i notice that they listen but don't really care
and that builds some more contradictions in my head
and around me, it builds an epical dread

This is quite good. I like the word choice, the way the 3WW words play within.
contradications in ones head do build dread. See the poetry in your writing when I read it outloud! And didn't know East Indians used "kvetch" but I like it
Good one. Enjoyed this. Thanks.
Wonderful read even if it builds dread in one's head :0)
