Working your way outward
your words seem indistinct
of meanings
thrown together
like a mosaic of many colors.
Everything falls into place
eventually.
Time loves a consistent objective
and abhors dilly-dallying,
procrastination,
and small words.
Some people
"Speak softly,
and carry a big stick."
Others, more reserved,
by far,
bring to the table
the same-old patterns,
attached to faulty wiring;
a house,
of many voices,--electric
--soon to short-out.
As you move forward,
carefully question
the many points of departure.
Your Journey,
individual,
carries each word
abidingly
from the start.
