Let It Go

Turmoil within seeks a way out
    From without, it seeks a way in

  To block that from without, a most sensible plan
    Let that go from within ~ it's just a strawman

Dear Mr Wolf...I do hope that is an acceptable Form of address,? I mean not in the red riding Hood sense ' I often fence...Just a point to Consider..' i often do let things go ya'know..not That I'm that good at throwing mind ' I do hope You'll find. ? Many things really,' like patience to.deal with irreverent comment ' And other Dist. ..Er.? Actions....yes Hmm thats it.!district Actions.'
