The Tracks of Time - Acrostic Sonnet
Too many straight-line certitudes adopt,
Heed not coin’s “other side”, nor feel the pain
Expressed when understanding’s lacking, train
Themselves to close their minds. Why choice is stopped
Remains a mystery, yet so few opt
Against the stream, theme focus tight restrain.
Choice is important! Why must most abstain,
Knowing needed growth, remain like propped
Stiff puppets strung along in life till chopped?
Open minds which for solutions strain
Find solace in discovery. Insane
The path seems from which all free-will is dropped.
Is it so difficult to cast a net
MEaningful, so easy to forget?
