decisions are my least favorite
especially the bigs
today is a day for a big

stay, go, maintain, establish
the verbs are competing, a tournament fielded in my mind
I go through the steps, the conversations
family, trusted colleagues
the people who know and care
I ask God for signs, and he whispers he’s been sending them for a while
I smile as I recollect

I consider whether too much of this book has been devoted to an ending
is it time for an altogether new storyline
duty though, the struggle I cling to as if the world is mine to repair
it is not though, plain and simple

evidence reveals truth
the revelation, though intuitive is based upon facts
today will become another day in a year
as well as the day I decided
