Situations,
events, times
pressures on every side
cause us to react, decide
on which path best to hike
to recover, alleviate, cure
that which threatens us,
is uppermost in our mind.
We attempt to
mitigate
the damage, to survive
restore, remedy, try
to redress, relieve the
cause, tension, driving,
besetting, distressing us
yet frequently we fail.
'Tis especially
so in our
personal relationships for
we neglect to communicate
sort out our root problems
irreconcilable differences,
can we adjust, compromise
replace 'irreparable'- survive.
