Does it Have to Be This Way?
“Do you like it like this? Do you like it like that?
Just tell me which way you like it”
Thank you, J.T.
Jim Croce sang it, too.
“No, it doesn't have to be that way.”
Remember the Blow Monkeys?
Jackson Browne
Quoted, saying, “You have to take the trouble,
To try not to be misunderstood.”
Words spoken in the thick
Post-mortem.
Not ever remembered prior to.
Neurons wired to align to emotion
With the perfect elixir of chemical responses
Lining up
Wake up to choosing sensibly
Utilize hidden wisdom
As preventative care leaps to the front of the line.
