With Angst And Cynical Rhetoric

Why are your commentaries,
So filled with angst and cynical rhetoric?

'I like the way you put that!

If my concerns were printed,
To exclude all delusions...
I would be considered socially unfit.
And with the use of censorship...
You would not be exposed to any of it.

That is why I have chosen,
To edit my own comments.
Ensuring my angst felt with cynical rhetoric,
Would leave you to read between the lines.

To find your own reason,
To mutilate and redefine...
A more intellectual way to express your anger.'
