The Best Poem Of Emily Oakes

King Indecision

Come on!
Make it rash, brash, quick
Even unthoughtful, unthinking!

Wait!
Wait.
It should be
Slow,
Methodical,
Stuck in the
Thick mud.

There is dim hope either way
For that disturber of the peace -
PANIC
Settles in for the foreseeable future.

Like a seaweed growing
Through guts.
The intestinal tide
Allows it to brush sides.

Hermes follows nervous
Pathways to
The outlandish territory: Grey Matter.

Matter ponders.
Thoughts grind and whirr.
The photograph album of 3 decades
Leafed through by
A callous thumb

And Indecision remains
Firmly seated on His throne.
