3WW with:
lump puzzled nervous

Cleared lump in the throat
Puzzled it turned sour felt
chilled out and nervous
Checked its sensibility
Funny it was all a joke

It took all kinds in
this world which was already
hellish and sinful
Could one be faulted then with
anger unduly provoked

    Being provoked is still at fault, but maybe a little less

    When you're provoked, almost anything can happen--and it usually does!

    Chilled out and nervous...now you mention it it doesn't seem such an unlikely alliance!

    Anger happens.
    It is the control we choose to use when angry
    that makes the difference.

    Provoked will indeed more often than not result in anger.

    Having a sensitive nature is not necessarily a blessing this cruel world.

    Some people seem to want to be provoked. Thoughtful piece.
