Opinion

After a lengthy lunchtime discussion of 

"World affairs"

And the latest political developments

I realize

That having a strong

Opinion

About anything

That I can't potentially control 

Is a stupid waste of time

And energy

I can listen and observe others

Not as some higher being

But as a curious loving observer

Remembering always

The feudal brevity of life

Everybody is headed in the 

Same direction

 I will gleefully play my role 

As mother time takes her toll
