Of the Seven Deadly Sins, anger is possibly the most
fun. To lick your wounds, to smack your lips over
grievances long past, to roll over your tongue the
prospect of bitter conversations still to come, to
savor to the last toothsome morsel both the pain
you are given and the pain you are giving back--
in many ways it is a feast fit for a king.
The chief drawback is that what you are wolfing down
is yourself. The skeleton at the feast is you.
