day 199


“If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all.” Romans 12:18

if peace
is depending on me,
it may be greatly
disappointed, seeing
as how easily i respond
every dog-whistle
calling me to run
to someone’s side
and feast on the treats
of anger, hurt, and
bitterness they hold
out to me
