Tail Spin

Conflict, fear, uncertainty
not the election
not the state of the country
though these things concern me too
this is about me

How do I feel?
What should I do?
What do I want?

It's not about figuring it all out
and worrying what will be
as much as it how to move forward
to focus my attention
and take action

Do I know what I want?
Do I have to know in order to do?
How do I channel the disequilibrium?

I wait, or is it I avoid?
I distract, or is it I choose?
Am I overthinking?

I wonder if I am being a realist
or a coward
I wonder if I am ready for change
or I just think I am
too much thinking not enough doing

Answers will come, but when?
