One Has Options

Shaking my Magic 8 ball
Yielding the same answer
No, no way, not today, not likely

I know it's not working
With the situation I'm in
I've been here before
Why am I sweating it
When Ive given it all I have
And still not getting anywhere

I don't need a talisman
Or any sign to point me to where

Options 


You call me by my name, too intentional
I gather all the courage to think more rational
You always held me when I’m available
But truly who am I, for you negotiable?

Your time is priceless, I cannot bargain
Mine is typical, but I can always sustain
I never asked for more than everything
Just be part of yourself, I can

Limited options or ww3'

To many lines now crossed!! Putin weighs carefully the
Odds..Stakes are nuclear by now to many (stupid sods!)
Pushed the row ' Heads must roll.' They will pay their own
Toll.' Gay-ne of function..and its resultant unction?
Perhaps we should enter into the more sustainable world
Functions.?

Either Or

We are either being educated

Or teaching

We are either being sought after

Or seeking

We are either engaged in a race

Or walking

We are either being attentive

Or talking

We are either intrigued by a rescue

Or being delivered

We are either exercising our consciousness

Or being chased by our whispers

We are either making use of our options

Or being victims of our circumstances

We are

Social

Endless option realm.
Made-up lives, well dressed disguise.
Boundless, lonely -hell.

Cinquain again!

Got old,
It's not so bad,
Wrinkle age, bucket lists,
Option far worse, naught to discuss,
No fuss.

A Confused Person

The unable to coordinate things,
Harshly left by a faculty with wings:
The clearly heard now have doubtful rings:
Mostly to a lousy idea clings…

For familiar role long awkward delays,
Even if some helper fresh guides relays:
The closest monitoring or he strays,
Head on which Man of God healing hands lays…

One won’t be right to tag him the aimless
But certainly

Out of Options

No,
I won't.
I
cannot
fail this time.
Countless
times
I've failed
to achieve
perfection. What
if someone
takes my
place?
Who am
I, if not
the best?
I
cannot
fail.

the email opens-
through a vale of tears
a rainbow appears

o'er the horizon
yesterdays imperfections-
look tomorrow awaits

Other Options

I wrote this card so tenderly,
To show how much I care
The postman has just returned it,
Saying you no longer live there.

This news has upset me.
I don't know what to do,
I think I'll find my address book
And send this card to Sue.

Our Options

We each of us make choices – 
Where to live and what to wear,
The type of work we’ll do
And just how much of life we’ll share.

A thousand small decisions
Factor in to who we are,
Determining how close we’ll get
To goals (or else how far).

Our options float before us
Every day that we’re alive.
We pick them or ignore

NOTE:THIS IS AN OPEN(organic) FORM VERSE   using spaces&breaks without grammatical symbols ,the ' open' relies upon 'the one breath limitation' & so inherently requires the 'reader' (reciter) to input and responds thus making this enigmatic form a two way interplay & interpretatIon unique to the moment& changing according to mood is inherently variable.
