indecision
minefield of infinite possibilities
stretching out before me
what do i do?
no GPS navigation or signal flare
no handwritten signs or suspicious arrows
no majestic owl fixing me with a glare
giving hoots of derision no matter which way i turn
as i spin
and hope my course keeps from exploding in my face
trapping me
in the fiery ocean of disgrace
where i’ll flail and burn
as i drown
