Choosing Better

The blessings of life
are easy
to see.

A can opener.

The difficulty
of trying
to open a can
without one
is unreal.

Regrets.

Without them,
you'd be
in a big
fucking mess.

Private bathrooms.

Try taking a shit
in the men's restroom
during a Dodger game
at the 7th inning stretch.

Most
let these
blessings
slip by.

I prefer
to count them.

Each
and everyday,
in each
and every way.
