Indecision
hoarfrost like a hoarse voice upon the ground
covered all our ambition in cold sanguine resignation
dejection of the deepest kind to chill the marrow of the morn
decrepit men are we that subjugate to the holism of endeavour
must hold our tongues whilst starvation flakes the flesh from bone
and taints the pure watered wells with tacit fears
for some will die here on unloved motions
and some will die and recrudescence are their children
when outcomes are alas mere conjecture
recondite in the afterglow of literature of muses
but in the here and now
who are you to say to me to featherbed the fates
and they may help you
federate their whimsy to the sails that tire your galley crew
or fester in the frailty of indecision
and winds may chime upon the gongs
and skeins of drums in wishes hollow mountain
for faux pas is not always failure
and boldness betrays none but the weak
live another day
learn another fact
its a facet in life's hard cut sapphire
well here and now i am sick
a non believer in the world of fortunes medicine
a non partaker of the cant of fortitude
for results results and more so results
inspire men and make their fortune
not make believes and fairy castles made of twig and sand
for such is indecisions sea cast deck
where waves may overwhelm the thing on which we stand
and rocking see the fishy drowning deeps
like slate blue sorrow beds
where lifeless floating jetsam
once was wise
