Passions, Problems, Fears

Driving in traffic and waiting in line

mastering my emotions

managing my time

longing for love

and pining for hate

lastly my fear

of showing up late

to the champagne breakfast

tripping on flowers

giving away money

owning my power

falling into a pit

of real estate

and maintaining the tall cedar trees 

I planted for privacy 

on the property line of my soul

I am trimming back the rose bushes

and spreading the chips 

standing on the shoulders

of giants like this.
