ESSENCE 10

if there's always a wall of something or other
staring you in the face,
why carry a brick in your pocket?

if there's always a roundabout in your mind,
why carry a set of traffic-lights
in your haversack?

if there's always a church
in your chest,
why not break into the sacristi?

if there's always a fly in your ointment,
why not bludgeon it to death
with a ballpoint pen?
