CHOOSING CHOICE
When we decide
Define or design
For ourselves
Life-paths
We are fools.
Everything is fluid;
And fluent fate
Has no word to
Explain or express
The universal jest.
You turn
You run
You scorn
You rage
And reject,
Yet patient life
Brings you back
To that cul-de-sac
Again and again:
Until you choose,
Until you lose
Your fear of pain,
And embrace
And love
Yourself
Again.
