300 Words or Less: Ring Around the Rosie

Want a quick fix? In 300 words or less I have your answer. More info and writing on this and other tidbits can be found down the veritable rabbit hole at: kickingcorners.blogspot.com

I know the right answers,

the ones people want to hear.

My head is tired from the answers

that other people want to hear.

My feet hurt, but I don't know why.

I'm angry today, but I don't know why.

The quick fix to pick up sticks

is just not to knock them down.

But what if, in my fall,

they tumble,

as I tumble,

and together, we all fall down.
