Comfort fears the possible,
amenities appear essential.
Trusting in others
above your own ability,
you lose the ambition to act.
Waiting hours
and surprised by friendly blindness,
confronted by the gaps in the facts
of life as we see it
we breathe in surprises
and exhale expectations.
You need half of what you want
and wanting fuels desire
and inspires the pursuit.
Every night I go to bed with regret
and awake with optimism.
