When Things Are Difficult, You Hold Your Chin High And Plow Through
Or you open a cabinet door
& pull out the keebler elf
or you go to the back yard & scream
or you open a bottle of wine
or you dance like you’re crazy
& sing loud as possible
or you get on your knees
& pull crab grass
or you call a friend,
& be a friend
to yourself.

Great poem! We can all relate.
In one way or each’s own way
most important–your ending
may take a life-time to understand
I think that is so true of our generation; I’m hoping the next has less trouble.
