I Avoid The High Horse

Vultures sit

bib breasted

waiting….

watching…

But I avoid

the hooves

of the high horse…

So thankful

peace prepared me

for days like this.

I’ve learned

storm clouds

don’t always drown.

There’s going to be

days like this…

frustrating days

like this…

They’ll try to chew

on me, pull at me,

roll me in their muck.

I choose to look on the

bright side of the lemon

and remember most

of my days are nothing like this.
