Angry Fist

When you try to solve your problems with the swing of an angry fist that cannot be unswung nor the damage caused undone regret will sidle up hollow out your belly and set your mind awhirl conveying very clearly that what you should have done was take a breath or two go back a bit in time to when that fist would not have swung to when Boots raised from just a puppy relied on your protection and came to you for comfort unclench that angry fist and remember how it felt when Boots was in your lap and you used that unclenched fist to gently stroke his warmth as he lazily stretched and yawned.
