High-Wire Act

On the horns of a dilemma
  a daring high-wire act
weighing options carefully
  with diplomacy and tact

Best let nature take her course
  Storms subside with time
Encourage a rapproachement
  Nurture elegant wind-chimes

Again, excellent advice. I suspect we are all on "the horns of a dilemma" from time to time. Those dilemmas just seem to crop up unexpected.

Yup. We all have them, though not to the extent that Mr. Biden has them these days: Haiti, the Border, Violence in the Cities, China, Russia, the Middle East, the Squad, The Voring Rights Act, the Infrastructure Bills.... Can't imagine why he (or anyone) would want to be President, can you?! ~ gw

I cannot think of anything more uncomfortable then being on 'the horns of a dilemma.' No wonder my butt hurts all the time. You are right...Nature knows best.' Best not to resist her. Stay frosty my friend.
