choices

If I can't do
what I want to do
then my job is to not
do what I don't want to do
It's not the same thing
but it's the best I can do

If I can't have
what I want...then
my job is to want what I've got
and be satisfied
that at least there
is something more to want

Since I can't go
where I need to go...
then I must....go
where the signs point
through always
understanding parallel movement
isn't lateral

When I can't express
what I really feel
I practice feeling
what I can express
and none of it is equal I know
but that's way mankind
alone among the animals
learns to cry
