How tolent can we be?

You leave for work in your car, on the way you overtake a driver, who is so mad

that for miles they follow you at speed untill you are able to shake them off.

On the way back home you decide to call into the local food store,

while waiting in line, you can hear mumbling from behind 

then this customer cooley walks past you and  gets served,

and you've been waiting for ages. 

You arrive home, to see 5 youths on bikes outside your door,

who have cut the tops from your flowers, after riding through your nice  lawn.

 What do you do?

Weeks later.

You are on the road, and the driver overtakes smiling as they go by.

At full speed, you drive up close, pushing them onto the opposite road, knowing it will take

them miles from this direction before a  turn off.

In the food store the customer is still making themselves

heard, never satisfied and clock watching. They do this every week.

You push them into their trolly, and hurl it from one

end of the store to the other, watching it bump into a stack of baked beans.

Home at last! But the gang are there! With your magic whistle from the glove 

compartment you blow, this alerts nearly every dog in the street, which confuses the gang who

ride off followed by the snarling pack not far behind them. 

(Or do we just do nothing, for fear that these people will retaliate,

if we meet them again, but the circle of intolerance has not ended! )
