Something about Attitude

Bright day, sunny day, storm clouds gather

to the West, there are decisions to be made.

Some none of my business; some pertinent

and ascribed to me personally. I can choose

to act, to ignore or delay. Today, sunny and

bright. Storm clouds gathering to the West

with might. I slip on my pants, button my

shirt, secure my boot straps in place, don-

ning my first-class, Postal Service attitude,

and head out into the world no matter the

case—Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor

gloom of night can stay me from the swift

completion of my appointed rounds. Even

though, I might add, expecting unforeseen

obstacles to be blocking the way.
