Invite, Solicit Or Visit. Period Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

I have never found it alright,
To have others make decisions...
For the way I live my life.

My own parents weren't restrictive,
Or strict.
They made suggestions and that was it.

To have someone decide,
What is or is not for me to appease my appetite...
Is not going to happen.

Unless someone is seeking an argument or a fight.
And at my age I 'will' sleep peacefully at night.

So conflicts to undo my wishes I do not invite.
Nor do I solicit or visit.
Period.
