Ill-Fated

Bravo, Wally.  With each action we create our future. Learning to control our emotional response is one of the greatest gifts we can give ourselves.  It's not action that starts war - it's reaction.  Best to walk away and ignore when someone misreads your intentions or views you through a negative filter. Nothing you say or do will alter that.

Thank you Ahavati.
Exercising control can certainly have a powerful effect. It takes patience and time.

You take the good, you take the bad, you take them both, and there you have .... a anitquated television show theme song.

It's a solid poem, but you might be better off with an end stop and pause to seperate your statements towards the end.

"There is nothing you can do,
But control your own attitudes,
No matter how rude or crude or how hard time gets,
Even when it all seems hopeless,
Even when you think you lose focus.

Karma is a harsh motherfucker that never, ever forgets."

LOL. I laughed at the facts of life reference here.
Thank you Johnny.

This poem pretty much spells out my life of late ...
Karma
Yeah

Eventually the tides turn. I wrote this for a comp a while ago and the host was going through difficult time. It will get better.

The karmic wheel is always spinning, and what is oft cloaked and hidden in secrecy; always comes to light !

Very true and it comes when the time is right.
