Choices

In a situation
not certain about
abundant temptation
too late to back out?

Is there an answer?
Do I want to hear?
Will it justify action
or ask for sanction?
The coast is clear
(or is it really?)

Feelings on the inside
(should I dive in?)
Is it only the outside
enticing me in?
Is there room for compromise. . .

Think twice
Be better smart
(it could get rough)
Gotta use my head
and rule my heart
(gotta wise up).

Could be apprehension
in choices I must make
What are the intentions
in the routes I may take?

I

To back off now is better ----
I'll get my thought together.
To read before I think
To think before I see
To see before I leap
and then leap
whole heartily.
