A Situational Bind...

Have you ever been in a situation where ALL signs lead to a conclusion about YOU
that is diametrically opposed to the truth?
And you cannot, for the life of you,
think of how to EXPLAIN your innocence in this scenario...
because NO matter WHAT you say,
you sound GUILTY?
But you''re really NOT!
And you can only imagine how this is playing out in the others'' heads...
how they are judging your ''misdeed''s...
And it makes you CRAZY...
So you internalize the RAGE and FEAR
over the sheer inequity of the precipitating factors,
leading to the FALSE CONCLUSION...
But you''re really, really tired of having to
FIGHT FOR YOUR LIFE...
so you just retire into the shadows of your own quagmire...
silently...hopelessly...
and yes, somewhat stoically...
And then, when you''ve resolved that, "STUFF HAPPENS"...
and "LIFE ISN''T FAIR>>"...
something inconsequential just eradicates the full-on, thrown-down mess...
in its entirety...
and you sit there, scratching your head,
wondering why it blew up like that...
