Notes About The Poem

Moral Dilemma

I have a choice to make in life, 
A choice from where I stand, 
A choice to do what’s good and right, 
Or forever to be damned,

You see, I’m in the middle of these stairs, 
Stairs made out of glass, 
And this decision in life is mine to make, 
Which way will I advance,

Up will offer this last slice of pizza, 
To my girlfriend in the room,
While down will see me reach right out, 
And it’s I that will consume,

Such a moral dilemma for me to make, 
How will things unfold,
Oh man, it’s now too late for me, 
My pet dog just ate it whole.
