acknowledgement, un's

the trouble with trouble is

the bubble 

(enjoy the trouble)

without margins for errors

the tightropes

the high jumps

the deep dives

the big hunts

the strange nights,

they become,

dangerous

(treacherous) 

the trouble with trouble is

double

without eyes for the better

or a mind looking forward

or an acceptance of failure...

regression becomes progress

when progression becomes...

pathological unkindness

mistakes can become tragedies

faults can become sins

and hunger

can lead to murder

can lead to war

can lead to an emptying of the soul

the trouble with trouble

is that, un-acknowledgement

leads to a different kind of argument

if and only if we would talk to each other

can the trouble with trouble be...

refined.

Author's Note

De-escalation as a very valuable ability was my point there
