Day 7 OctPoWriMo 2017: If You Know What's Good for You

Today’s Theme:  And then I went too far


If You Know What’s Good for You
(A 4-Haiku story)

Back-pedaling now
Your sole response to my eyes,
Widened by your spew

But words can’t undo
My lurching, pretzeled stomach
The anger in my brain

Best course? Walk away
Let the cortisol subside
Get out of my reach

If you know what’s good
for you, run while I count slow.
One, Missisippi ...
