Making decisions
That do not reach
The intended destinations
Involving in Acts
Self defeating and suicidal
State of vegetation
Where status quo is considered a fashion
A person who makes these calls
In more than one occasion
Is in dire need of guidance
Prudent future action
Is the vision lacking in his thinking

Happened to many
Waltzed down the chimney
To the fire
Burnt and weary
But not ready to
Accept that his actions are faulty

Pointing out the fault
Is no problem
The inflated ego gets burst
That's the quandrary
Insult of intelligence
Is the wrong perception
Trying again with no realisation
That the same act cannot
Produce another result
Leading to more insults

Many years in
The advising business
Both ends of it
Giving and receiving
Unless pointedly asked
Do not part
With knowledge on your behalf
Wasted words doesn't stop
Thoughts and emotions given as bonus
Experiences and analytical ability
The 2 power horses
Used as cylinders
To fire the process
Of change in the other

The target misses
Invariably as law of nature
Intends
Each his own
Best cliche in the history
No 3 better words formed
Out of the English vocabulary

Not worth the time
Of both yours and mine
None taken seriously
I ve seen it all already
In my position
Things are different
The pressures i face
Are face to face
Many such reasoning
Based on the conditioning
Running through the mind
Blocking any flow
Of a new process of contemplation

Best answer is silence
Remember you were not asked to begin with
Anything voluntarily offered
Has no value
Its available free
Remain aloof hope for his good

His time is when
He realises it then
Only from within
Until then...
