A slight slip of the wrist, or 
an accident or mistake, sure
to curtail all those immediate 
thoughts or intentions.
   Is it one of those days?
   Humbly acknowledge your 
predicament, wipe away the 
residue of your most recent 
mishap, turn the page, and
find yourself another space 
where you won’t have to 
maneuver around the detritus,
dampness, and disintegrated 
dialogue that you doubted.
   You have things to say.
   Make your self the priority.
   There is always time and a
destination for clarity and
clear thinking. Write on.
   It is one of those days.
