What Would You Do?

     An argument. A threat. A reaction. Or is there? It is a commonplace to hear threats simply by walking outside. Most of them are meaningless. How do you really know? I would trust my better judgement. I would see if I could distract, see if I could help the threatened. I'd call the police if it were necessary. I'd like to call myself a good person, but sometimes there is no clear answer for what to do. In reality, there is nothing coming down from the heavens to shine light on the situation. Action. Reaction. It's a reflex. I do what I can, and I keep going. Sure I'll ponder it for a few days to come, but what more can you do? The world is a cruel place.
