ATTITUDE.

Fay Slimm.

 

 

ATTITUDE..

 

If large baskets of attitude swing
in between
branches of success and failure
by feeding
relationships with choices made
single-handed
then life-long kin-skeins might
become tangled.

 

Moods of hilarity must confront
dull intellect's
doleful otherness because black
appears normal
to mortals who lean too near
a mere No or Yes
and rely too much for wisdom
on a rushed guess.

 

Once snapping with over-wait
irate factors
of indifference are scattered
as hesitance wraps
addiction to me-ism in extra
heavy weights
and makes over-tried patience
too often stretched.

Thought prior to answering, less
unkind reaction
and for leading to more success
care sans anger
shows understanding that wins
needed proof
for choosing matters which begin
securing love.
