Happens

Happens

I have a high threshold for shite
I learned, not from  bullies,
I was never bullied at school..
they tried, but failed
as I didn't accept it visibly..
I have a bottomless pit
that gathers negitivity
like nuclear waste
it's contained, 
sealed and dumped..
but  i feel the glow
from my inner core
I guess, love gives you
a high threshold
as, soldiering  through
everything they throw..
because of love..
make you strong ? 
it falls off the shovel
love me in spite of my ugly ?
I learned in marriage
how to take the barrage
from anothers inadequacy
and still carry on..
it's my inherent legacy
it all looks the same now
it all comes in nice clothes
with smiley faces..
like born again Christians..
but it doesn't pass
quality control..just the level alters..
feel that breeze
it's the fan

With silver highlights
Riding my old mare
