Best Alternatives Poems
A Veritable Cornucopia of AlternativesAlas, I look at my options and I panic
Bewildered by my choices that feel so gigantic
Clarity seems a bit elusive right now
Dastardly and evasive to me somehow
Establishing an anchor is what I should do
For that would improve my point of view
Grasping for answers that dangle...

AlternativesI can choose to kill this pain; let it lie
until all sense decays from off the bones
and upon their bleaching starkness hang
the chaff of life:

to try something new.
Let's all of us eschew the polls,

Christmas a Good Time to Look For AlternativesChristmas seems to be a good time,
To look for alternatives in good time,

Spotting the AlternativesSpotting the alternatives,
If you are not up to a spot of reading,
Could result in some serious head scratching.
Spotting the alternatives,
With no place to do some thinking,
Your sanity you could be risking.

Makes it impossible to do any linking.
Spotting the...

Jerusha's RubiconFamily unity, ties bound with conditions
Cult peoples kept from alternate climates
Narrow track administered to every woman
Mother of two, Jerusha determined to fight it
Prospect of allowed departure non existant
Packed full backpacks for herself, Cain, Ismail
Heart racingly taken, stealth taxi whisked them
Latitude of escape seeped freedom's...
