Yes! Get rid of it! I like your "age and experience" idea so much. If I live to be 100 I will get rid of IT? Not likely, but I'll be wiser. If this heat doesn't let up, I will...............Bonk! Love, Dave

There is a sense of 'release' with each poem we write, I do believe! That I also feel as you do, Carolyn! Good job explaining here!!
