Darren Odundo Poet ABC

A New Dawn

All discussions lead to all conclusions 
every mistake guides to apparent lessons 
its in the risks that we get reparations  
but we all seek refuge in comfort and ignore confrontations 

so feel oblivious of their thoughts 
abide to their feelings in rescue of their ego 
prejudice takes control and the reign of failure is established 
in this kingdom of distorted priorities 

should I give up on my actions because of predetermined reactions 
is predicament a source of valid perception 
factual of fictual which state of life defines me?
past present or future where is reality best distinguished 

the past good or bad cannot define who we are 
what we can do or where we can be 
past was gone so fast that no room for edit can be 
the future is too far that we can only ascertain at the moment what we are

the present is subject to change and retain
accustomed with surprises and innovations 
this is the best state of true self 
it defines inabilities from extreme abilities
