important decisions arrive unbidden
like forks in the road forcing you
to choose left or right up or down
yes or no without any maybe
you slow to a stop
days of a single thoroughfare
are coming to an end
two directions loom ahead
deep breaths scribble
columns of pros and cons
logic ping-pongs in your head
as judgment time approaches
ultimately though it’s a choice
between a pair of unknowns
and just to loosen the bolts
in your brain if you believe
in fate then the decision
has already been made
