to choose / to follow


Choose leaders carefully
lest they assign important tasks
chasing needless ideas
a purposeless purpose
sense of worth
that destroy, divide
hurt.

Face down, on a crossroad
lost time for companion
you inhale hard
burnt tar.
The path slipped away
while you were drunk
on their words.

Follow naught!
