POEM: Choices
This was written to the weekly art on the CPC Simple Sunday Picture challenge. The art is by a young man who posts as “*m-erlap” and is titled “Two Ways.”
CHOICES
In choosing the write path to take
no one wants to make mistakes.
The high road may be tough to climb
with noble lines and witty rhyme.
The lower route is chosen when
presumtuousness rules the pen.
Opaque comes not from wise musing,
but oozing from poetic rusing.
The reader knows when being fooled
by sensing reason overruled
by obfuscation in the guise
of obscure words of excess size.
