Whatever It Takes Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Whatever It Takes



Taking a few steps back,
To make corrections directed...
On one's path to move forward,
Makes more sense...
Than walking backward on a path,
For the purpose to show others...
One is pro-active in catching mistakes first,
Before they are made...
With no corrections needed to be directed,
May take a few steps to convince them...
Paying attention makes all the difference.

'Who you lookin' at?
You gotta problem? '

~ You're...there is a...~

'Owwwww....'

~Never mind.
Problem solved.
You found the hole behind you.
You would have seen it if you were walking forward.
But then again...~

'Maybe I did this on purpose.'

~Exactly!
Whatever it takes.~

'Aren't you going to help me get up? '

~That's not my purpose.~
