Haiku Part 4
I am fine it seems
It's fake it till you make it
Or some such drivel
Going horse riding
We may be in for some rain
Adventure woman
Deer hunters about
I will wear my bright orange vest
And hope for the best
It's fake it till you make it
Or some such drivel
Going horse riding
We may be in for some rain
Adventure woman
Deer hunters about
I will wear my bright orange vest
And hope for the best
I am here to whine
My horse, she hurt me today
She slammed me down hard
I'm scared. She knows it
It is a battle of wills
I have lost my nerve
Sober me, cautious
She wants to dominate me
Well, she got her way
She might have to go
Tired of being knocked around
Hurt me good this time
Used to like 'em wild
Younger then and wild myself
I was alpha mare
I'm bruised and battered
Moving slow, taking Aleve
Pills, I mean it, "NO"
Life is about change
Life is about letting go
Life has beat me down
What is a cowgirl
If she does not have a horse
End of an era
My horse, she hurt me today

Life is about letting go

irreversible
slide into a writhing knot
without the right meds
doctor chiro wife
sister all telling me to let
go and take the meds
felt like a relapse
but i don't like the buzz or
the fuzzy morning
but grateful it helped
so not concerned about a
slip into abuse
they're not painkillers
and spasms are subsiding
seems i needed them
we create rules and
manufacture fear when all
we need is reason
an act of mercy
a kiss of self-compassion
a risk worth taking
only as prescribed
not feeling triggered at all
strong in my resolve
sometimes we draw lines
in the sand that need to be
crossed for a moment
i fought two battles
by losing one for now i
will win the other

had to surrender
i was being stubborn by
refusing treatment
i need to heal and
give myself a break instead
of being fearful
this is a triumph
of sorts because in the end
i know what i want
and what i don't want
and i don't want to be high
it's a sacrifice
i sacrificed my
clarity to reverse my
sliding condition
i am high right now
and the beauty is i don't
like the muddy head
but i can feel my
muscles unraveling and
melting toward normal
they will not tear from
my bones and undulate like
a stuck octopus
they will not wake me
tonight thinking i've been stabbed
with twenty ice picks
and soon i will heal
and when i am that bottle
of pills wil be tossed
