Hostility surrounded, abounding
Off the walls of the
Otherwise likable abode.
There was no punch thrown,
nor an angry word hurled.
Alternatively it was a inner dissection
of another’s efforts
Rather than a letting go.
It was the thinker’s grab for control
To be above, superior, lording
Over another by “understanding”
their behavior. Scrubbing clean
the notion did not work
So I chose accepting,
letting go, releasing
Freeing, growing, showing
I care by not caring
what their behavior
was caused by.
This is the house
of my mind I want to live in.
