Premium Member every second is a choice
Every minute is a choice I could go to the Dollar store Could get gas Could get my hair cut Could sit in the dog pen with my dogs If I cancel my lunch date with three friends I could get my teeth whitened, Could attend a lecture on Sully Could look for my lost emerald ring Because I am getting lazy And it is...

Premium Member Was it truly your choice to live in a world that fills you only with anger and sadness
Was it truly your choice to live in a world that fills you only with anger and sadness, To drown in your silent fury and that of your comrades, until silence becomes a painful cry? Did you choose for your limbs to twitch, to fight, for your feet to kick, your hands to scratch, Or is it just...

Premium Member The Sheer Gravity of Uncertainty
When poised precariously, balanced on the edge of a precipice, choice can’t wait for clarity.

You're blindfolded by fear, bent over, to leer, too long, into the valley below. Uncertainty and...

Premium Member The Wisdom of Age
That age brings wisdom, mainly aged say, And yet, there comes a calm as passion dies; And as a poet said another day, The old, as good for nothing else, be wise.
