choose your battles

choose your battles
my theme
seems
like I’m repeating that line
way
too
much in my head
choose your battles
with
kids
with
husband
with
friends
with
boss
with life
not everything has to be a fight
not everything has to be a battle
but
seems some days I wake up
with gloves on
laced up and I’m bouncing
come on sucker put up your dukes
all ya all
you got something to say to
ME
and really
not everybody wants to fight
not everything is a matter of life or death
like dirty socks in the living room
or working late Again
or why do I always have to call You
or why is it My job to make the coffee
or
why
am I getting so old so fast
and the world is just zooming by my door
and I hear it
and I want it
and I’m sitting here
licking my wounds
from the
friggin
battles I choose
how goes the war?
how goes the war you say?
put
up
your
dukes
lets get down to it

I have found that there are few things in life worth fighting for. Let the Hyenas fight over the carcass, I'll just order a pizza.
