lessons of survival

everyone
should trip and fall
at some point,
slip on the ice,
endure a hangover,
or hit their thumb
with a hammer,
have a small fender bender too,
or be stopped
by the police for
speeding.
a bee sting,
a broken heart as well
can be thrown
into the mix.
most of us need just one
such warning,
some two or three,
to keep us
out of trouble for
the long haul.
