Dedication Vs Denial

the world is random actualities
and
logic shapes of mind are the realities

direction of time is a probability constant
called
the omega of predictable possibilities

it is first and last with respect change
because
gambling by guesswork is of wide range

with chances of failure like walking on ice
its why
someone is chosen for the supervision off-ice

its best that controller have dedication to task
so
the march across time is not pure chance and risk

for that leader to do nothing and not pass the buck
means
they are in irrational self-denial running purely on luck

it is a con used by a child to escape doing a task
or
used by a bankruptcy fall guy whose job is to be last

self-denial is blindness to one's own inexpertise
just
a hidden way an ego does plead 'don't choose me again please'
