What can we do
when it all falls down
around our feet
and they,
all of them,
expect us to be commanding

Always
they expect someone
to take the reigns
because everyone
is ashamed
of their own decisions

Better to criticise
than to have
that biblical rock
thrown in your face

So do we shirk?

Do we be hesitant?

Or do we be unabashed?

Yes.
