Conclusively inconclusive

by Ondine Evans

 <<< Does one jump to a conclusion? 'Twould be messy.

<<<<<<<<<Can you rise to one instead? Might be too high.

<<<<<<<Or is that an occasion? One can never be too sure.

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<One mustn't stand on ceremony, might hurt.

<<I'd like to make a leap of faith, but again, it could be a long way

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<To fall out of favour, without fear.

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<I'd like to make a firm decision,

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<But the path is not clearcut.

<<<I might steel myself, but I'd be concerned about staying sharp enough.

<<<<<<<<<<<<<Perhaps it's only the path of least resistance, after all,

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<Picking primroses all the way...........>--->O...........o well.
