everything but temptation

it's hard to stop
smoking,
or drinking or
carousing around,
or eating
too many pastries,
red meat,
staying out
late
with bad people
doing bad things.
it's hard
to be the person
you really are,
good,
but you try,
sometimes you try
harder than other
times, unlike
tonight for instance,
when you can resist
everything
but temptation.
