Wise Decisions Made Avoids Ill Fate Poem by Terence George Craddock

it seems people must possess multiple abilities
accumulate across time many various life skills
learn to adapt to differing situations circumstances

people must be elastic stretch themselves
stretch or break in life pulling demands
in storms gust winds reeds bow bend flat
oak standing proud may storm break back

life necessities urgent impedes choices
wisdom dictates bills needs paid for first
rich resources buy free action free will?
choices elastic bands scope will stretches

economic financial necessities snaps back impractical decisions
an ill fate edges waiting reigns in wonderful potential decisions ill?
wage slaves walk strict tightropes blade thin wire guillotines choices
