At the Crossroads

I am at a crossroads
and that's quite a quandry
next choice shapes my life
more than doing the laundry
It's a choice of vocation
that troubles my mind
making the wrong choice
will leave me behind
Two options present
themseves to my eye
to avoid the wrong choice
I'd rather die
My last job was a crime
worse than a felony
and at the root of it all
was my enemy
Option number 1
can be described as quite safe
but lifeless it will be
at my creativity chafe
Option number 2
is a postion with risk
satisfaction will be real
and challenges brisk
Do I follow my heart
and my head anger
please check out the details
which I've posted on Xanga
It's a matter of choice
our only free will
so which do I choose
steady or the thrill?

Look at it as if you were choosing a partner for life. Which is the one you could live with and be happy and content for the next 20-30 yrs. Wishing you luck.

Being a risk-taker myself, I'll say 2, but what choice is the right one for YOU.....?
Good Luck. Scorp. |

Thank you all for your support. Interestingly enough, almost everyone in my physical life (with the exception of my son) tells me to take the 1st choice. Almost everyone in the online community advises me on choice no. 2. I think that says a lot about both sets of people. Honestly, it was sufficient lack of satisfaction in my physical life that drove me to writing poetry and discovering YPDC in the first place. Which basically means that they still don't get it, LOL. And, I realize now I had already made up my mind and was looking for validation. It's not necessarily who listens longer, but who listens better, and YPDC has great listeners. I will take door #2, and ty again.
