Just do it.... or... Five aspects of indecision

Couldn't make up my mind...

1. Don’t think
at least I think not

sloughs of despond
and quagmires clog
the mind of
the thinker

therefore I am

responding to instinct
avoiding stagnant ponds


2. Don’t blink
- get in the right spot

here it comes
all rise
I rise highest
eyes on the prize, and
in it flies

no
a rebound
head it
no kick it
right or left foot

oh no
too slow
the thicker man
was quicker
to the ball

and I've let the chance go


3. Pen and ink
Writer’s block
clocking ticks
and tocks
and the time that never stops
and too many other tasks

tea at two for one

out at eight
so too late
to get this writing done

is it
or is it not

turn on the TV
turn off time's
toxic
ticks
and tocks
watch the box

till tomorrow
till it's time to turn it on again
and off and on and off


4. Don't sink
Keep on

sweat in eyes
hot

trench ahead

occupied
or not

get bayonet at the ready
fears aside

JUMP IN

stench
rats and flies
thank God
they’re dead

no they're not

one on this side
and one on that side
me in between
am I ready


5. Don't wink

She likes me

but I couldn’t
I wouldn’t
I shouldn’t

or
should I
would I
could I

just do it

nice rhytmatic flow to this. It says much and I can relate.
