Bravery Is Overrated

Don't be too brave, It might save, you, from you. I'll tell you a story... One day I woke up, in a pile of ****, literally, but I wasn't surprised not even a bit. Fortunately, my home was away few miles, people I was passing by, heh, I've never seen so much smiles, around me, They were wondering; what was I doing? what happened to me? Some of them avoided me, some of them yelled, some of them smelled!? weird ha, one of them got creative, and took a hose, his laugh suddenly rose, when he let the water overflow, I was overrun, It was a real show. A guess they were happy, that even their life wasn't so crappy. They finally found, somebody even more messed up than them, a black lamb. For some reason, that made me satisfied, I had no choice anyway, I had nowhere to hide. But you remember I said, I wasn't surprised, I did not lied, You see, yesterday I accidentally met, a pack of thugs, so conveniently instead of hugs, one pulled a knife, He made me afraid for my life, so I got pissed, I went for a hit, I missed, so they said to me, "oh man, you're gonna wake up in a pile of ..." That is it I got home, I took a shower, and I went to sleep, Eventful way, to start and finish a day, I would say. Would you?
