Encountering
aggressive or nasty people,
One
should remain quiet and calm
Don’t
react, nor over-react.
But
to imagine one’s sitting in a crow’s nest
On
top of a tall, oily mast
Where
none of the aggression or nastiness
Could
ever shin up
Where
one could then summon a magic carpet
To
fly one off to somewhere idyllic and tranquil
Away
from those disrespectful or unkind
To
enjoy one’s company
And
remembering the gemütlichkeit of people wonderful!

Aggressive
peace-keeping beats all-out war.
