ESCAPE…. RUN!

Sometimes the itch of anger

escapes out from under the

edges of me - “Oooh!  Oh no!”

Then there is the ooze of wanting

to snap at someone for being selfish

or not seeing what I’m seeing.

It’s then that I have to step back

or step out of  me - out of there -

and take a walk around the block

and  hopefully come back home

to normal, I hope, please God.
