Sticky Messes

Br'er Rabbit me still tries to best Tar Baby still gets caught up in the emotional mess as an ego-maniacal half-wit when the best approach is to not approach, as if staying out reach and staying out of touch were one-in-the same as running like hell in another direction. But as a gluttonous masochist two, maybe three, times each year I'll stand within reach and swing away. No. That is not letting go.

I haven't touched the tar for many seasons but still the die hard spectator.
