My Inner Voice Told Me

A plethora of complex verbiage clogs and clutters solemn university tombs,
gem-encrusted sequestered  vaults  impervious on  mountain peak percentage practical basis, 
when express benevolence  enjoins the ultimate in empirical  assessment  on matters,
that ally one disregards at a perilous disbursement as factors in collateral,
As I can amply testify in copious quantities of valid case loads,
 how a wisp is uniquely your other silken angel voice,
it can be that unerring compass whose every point ineluctably,
 that signpost whose reference can chart a life  close to flawless,
there are so many voices to be heard in terms of empowering expression which could stifle conversations,
but the inner voice which isn’t always loud and voluble but can be accepted for a for m of counsel,
whose inevitable accuracy on most if not all vital matters germane to one’s life and general experience,
the nudge that inkling which softly says be careful before you press that button or explore that link for reflection,
examples a plethora where and when that barely heard nudge might have been your latent shrewd prompt,
suggesting an opportunity in concrete terms is just so patently bogus and deceitful,
the one moment when an otherwise observant astute person that makes progress in this world,
may have had their life savings possibly investments pilfered and left destitute as a result,
the ramifications of such folly which one would not be  prone to catastrophic on a mammoth scale so terrifying,
quite frequently the wary but not blindly cynical among the human population might be frank enough to admit,
that intuitional saviour was in solid terms my financial saviour or other similar category of brazen theft,
yet such a sagacious internal mentor equally in its capacity to rescue even the most worldly literate from calculating reprobate,
casts its influence in strongly advising a delayed 
reaction before pressing that apparently benign link,
where an irrevocable embarrassing expose of wanton folly based on immediate impulsive idiotic risk taking,
which could almost always have been avoided despite 
the quite patent dubious phrasing that should been noticed,
to morbidly overemphasise the worldly commerce where one can be so vulnerable to the machinations from evil doer,
is futile when shrewd evaluation in other critical dilemmas quite frequently imposed without the slightest hint,
these occasions can alter permanently perception and the possible demoralising prospect where loss,
in innate humanity and frequent encounters with sacrifice for others tragically fallen persons in poverty,
cannot be gainsaid or inherently denied when one reflects on posthumous damage to a wider sentient arc,
this asset that embedded equipment earnestly can be our doctor in instant without the slightest reticence even of the mildest variety, 
tests in life abound as do momentous trials yet the sagacious ripple inside speech as colleague,
the reliable rescue rapid rover dispensing caution or measured reconsideration a pause,
a curb on reckless over enthusiastic acceptance which at a later phases could be disastrous from several angles,
these are matters not of a frivolous ilk which cannot be repudiated  or repulsed to any considerable extent for the wary,
rampant indiscriminate  cynicism shall perforce be shunned by those elements 
who cherish practical delay before decision making, 
libraries and lexicons profuse and profound dominate bookshelves until they virtually topple over,
yet if that periodic nudge when authentic doubt an interlocutor suggesting a firm resolute naysayer negative,
became the first counsel selected on the integrated  principle enunciated by untainted rational when sudden niggling discomfort, 
spectacular attainment eschewing slovenliness would alert close allies and your immediate circle to the ripe harvest forecast available, 
by probing unfathomable depths we can familiarise ourselves to a defined significant degree,
 with this voice that which create adventure after adventure owing to to this inspiration clad advocate,
if truthful characters were to be uncompromising in their frank utterances enchanting stories would unfold unadorned,
an extremely tense  critical examinations where by dint of absorbed patience and sustained study the voice that hint,
you are approaching this question incorrectly or don’t squander limited  time slot at Olympic stadium speeds,
a moment’s reflection and wiser choices seem facile behind that guidepost underneath,
and as the test concluded and those subsequent results to your advantage published much to your undisguised joy,
an acquaintance was forged even if that upshot leading to recant of your original attempt an indelible mark,
seasoned travellers have spoken in lucid language, 
and at erudite duration governing their fatal close to death encounter, 
which in truthful terms  was anything but a casual lapse on their behalf,
 primarily through that sudden  intervention the subject of this work, 
a slender thread instinct one sourced at an internal level that muttered “ Don’t do this.”
which meant a tragic episode horrifying was thankfully then averted, much to the relief family and authentic friends,
in situations broadly defined there can be innumerable menacing  likelihood  surrounds where impulsive visits,
should based on that cerebral shred attuned to putting oneself at serious disadvantages,
stark urban nocturnal tension builder post tolling bell symbolism a cryptic point pounced upon,
without scintilla of paranoia a black curtain signage from masked sage adherent among elite occurrence,
the wild and rambling otherworld forest so enticing should encourage, ample prior planning by consulting that august manual,
that inner voice whose solid promptings, authentic ear drum whisks, that mysterious inexplicable beware so reliable
