A not so typical ending

At first

the outrage

“What’s the matter with him! He

always does this to me!”

Then

the self-pity

“What did I do to deserve this? Why

is he so mean to me?”

 

Next

the intended frantic action

I’m going to have a word

with him. Speak my mind. Tell

him this is not on”

Then maybe

after all this. Just

maybe

Silence

 

and a still, small voice:

“There is only Love. All

else is illusion. Compelling but

still, only illusion.

Dramas to feed Egos”

 

And finally

“I bless you

with my whole heart

with the happiness that is

your birthright and

mine”

 

Then

once more

The peace that passeth all understanding

and actions that spring only from it
