Jennifer Christie Temple Poet Free verse

Looking For Answers

Do you worry about direction
or purpose? 
Always stressing over selection
or choice?
And then electing, upon reflection,
to dodge the issue
and hope it will be shown?
It won’t!

Or do you go in for dissection
of problems?
Using logic for connections
and sense?
Just trusting the imperfections,
crowded in your head,
will all come clear?
Well, don’t!

Intuition and logic’s perceptions
work fine, 
for probing unknowable questions
unknown.
But solving insoluble connections?
The clue is in the name.
The search
is the aim.
