I Am At The Cross-Roads Poem by Leonard Dabydeen

I Am At The Cross-Roads



I am at the cross-roads

where many paths seem

to lead me to where the grass

is greener on the other side

or so it appears to be

every opportunity is lingering with

uncertainty wrapped in vaulted

vestibules, luring the mind to slice

any tentacles of doubt

I harbor more certificates

and more certificates to support

more certificates

but those are all I have

waiting for Hope

like a desperate prostitute

needless of any recruiters

then, again, looking back

at what has been, or what might

have been, is like recharging

the mind to move forward

where the future is dancing

in the wind without looking back

with lingering anticipation

I am at the cross-roads.
