wishful arguing

I am trying to describe
a certain anger. It flashes
into ire from jaw-jut dare
and flares and congeals
to tenacity, obstinate

and equally vehement against
the first hint
of doubt another has
that what they say
is true
is true,
and any credulity
the other lets slip
in whatever established truth

the angry one

has a problem with.
It's a problem with sheep
and authority, and confusing
their place in all of this.
They suspect they're the hero,
here, but
let's just agree
to disagree

we wish
