Pressure gauges
Play an important role in construction
There is a safe range from
Just above too little to
Just below too much
Pipes are at the mercy
Of whatever or whoever
Is applying the pressure
Too much
And they will break apart
“Applied pressure”
Reminds me of life
Sometimes the pressure is from
An external source or event
Outside our control
Sometimes the pressure is from
Internal thoughts or goals
Isn’t it great that unlike pipes
We can choose
To adjust the pressure ourselves
Before we are broken
