Way to Go

Which way, which way upon the tangled path
Do we direct our feet, who wish to be
Whatever turns aside potential wrath
Yet balance brings to our reality

When we hope clear communication might —
Though see the equal possibility
That it might not — turn prior wrong to right
Not, instead, all affect disastrously

If we do speak, we might be sorry for
The act, upon a day that’s yet to come;
If we do not, perhaps sorry the more
Did nothing to bring selves that sorrow from

When all the future is to us obscure,
When no directing marker do we see,
There’s yet one thing of which we may be sure:
Our Selves, when we express authentic’lly
