Yield
Je pense donc je suis
Mais mes pensées
Je passe, repasse et ressasse
Puis j'efface et essuie
Et c'est table rase
For I think but if it stinks
I must swipe
And ideas swap
Clean the deck
No need to fret
For a new start
Make it fresh
Pour une meilleure vision
And brighter dreams
On the horizon
Mais mes pensées
Je passe, repasse et ressasse
Puis j'efface et essuie
Et c'est table rase
For I think but if it stinks
I must swipe
And ideas swap
Clean the deck
No need to fret
For a new start
Make it fresh
Pour une meilleure vision
And brighter dreams
On the horizon

"For a new start...And brighter dreams" I like the optimism amidst the question of trying to make decisions.
Great entry.
Great entry.

Thank you for this competition entry! I loved the way you seamlessly moved from French to English, and back, and forth. I've tried to do similar in the past, but not very successfully! The image you chose to illustrate your poem is striking and apt too. Well done!
