Resignation

Some people sweat & some people bet…Let me explain myself.
Those who worry plan in a hurry…& chancers chase the wealth.

A tongue can wag in any direction; better that you act.
Yet action can still damage, if with thin air you’ve made your pact.

I can but only hope & work towards my destination.
So, I must guess & eyeball fate’s unknowable gestation.

Then, & again, I could just coast inevitability…
To stranger tides of futility & sure senility. 
 
In truth, there is but one thing to do & that is carry on.
Though never dare even think of uttering, “I should calm down”.

I see the world through a Painter’s eyes and process it with a Poet's Heart....it's quite a harsh place for the soul. It scratches and wears your true self down, at times, but the Beauty is Addictive. I feel for everyone I encounter. Everyone I encounter is a teacher if I'll let them be. I Empathize with everyone I talk to & I Think about Everything-LEVi
