Turning
the Other Cheek is Practical
as
Hell—however pious it might
sound. If
someone calls you oaf,
stupid, insensitive,
mean, infinitive-
splitter —what are you going to say ?
No I am not! You’re
wrong!
Take that back!
Has
anyone noticed how much
contra-diction
goes on ?
Discrepancies? Peoplesaying
one
thing & doing another? Politicians
esp. o those bad boys bad boys
as
if they were hypocrites. I
can’t believe
it. I’m
not believing
it. Why can’t we all just
get along?
Do right? My FBook burns-up
with pants on fire, inequity and
injustice.
I love to catchem in their
wrong-doing.
I think it’s because
families don’t
eat supper together
so much, photo-shopping.
Body-
shaming.. Smoking vapor, eating
meat. Reasons why. It’s not my fault.
When
I was manic I could read
your mind, walk
on water, play
tennis like a sonofagun, see
personal signals in road signs,
solve crimes,
predict touchdowns,
make total sense
& more out of
any text and context.find
myself
in sync with tv programs and
news
casts, resurrect dead
classes .& walk around
beaming.
When
I was depressed I would
weep in class, drag
my ass, wonder
why, breathe in a bag, listen
to
car radio songs for clues, faint
signs and
recollections of aims,
goals, & measurable objectives,
light a candle. Curse the darkness.
