How was your day,
my colleague asked
as i sat in the car
tucking my big bag under the seat
Fine,
I grumbled
my head pounding
fine, i muttered,
the brevity of my response
combining the
everything under one label
ignoring everything that
i experienced
the happy moments,
the mundane, the lonely
and the really absurd
it ignored the fear,
the gripping panic
the tears that line the eyes
when you experience biting rudeness
Fine
being emotionally stunted,
it is always hard to focus on the right thing
What are you focusing on?
What you focus on augments
R appraised the situation
gave pertinent advice
K made me laugh
Pappesh listened
Sh - she joked
no one asked what exactly happened
The danger in that question is
your focus may not be helping you
and as you relive it
may stay entrenched in your mind
Change your neural pathways
Choose who chooses you
Choose you
