Animal House

There are some things that you cannot take back, most common are the actions and words that leave us biting our tongue and sometimes just biting our cheek.  These actions manifest and lie under the surface, like leeches below the calm surface of a pond or lake.  Waiting for the slightest disturbance before they come out in force.  I’ve long considered myself a good person, with a good head on my shoulders.  Though I’ve made my fair share of mistakes in the past, I have been able to lok past them with a clarity that eludes me most any other time in my life.  I’ve always attempted to take the high road because they say it leads to high places, but for all these instances of good all I have to show for it is a trail of misery that only I am privy to.
