Mexican Standoff

A poem about being afraid to act

It's like waiting for a train
That you're not sure will arrive,
You can't twiddle your thumbs

Or shift slightly this way or that,
The slightest inclination that you'll move

Sets the trap, is this what a mexican standoff is like?

Afraid of what might happen,

If you pull the trigger

Why the fear?

Why the hesitancy?

One of you will fail

I just hope its not me.
