A momentary lapse
The easiest thing to do is to distract yourself. Turn up the music and take a drag off that cigarette and realize this too shall pass - this moment in the episodic drama that is life as it was meant to be. Make a joke. Make them smile. Make them cringe. Be the role that you need to be. Be anywhere but here, anything but you. Realize that this moment is here now and will be gone tomorrow. Realize the difference a moment can make. As the cigarette dwindles down and the warm breeze teases the tired trees know that all this was a distraction and… like all things, this too shall pass.
