Not so Smooth Sailing...

Life's little slips,
life's little dips...
the ebb and flow of a lifetime,
at least that's how i think
How is it that you sail
your ship through uncharted waters?
Do you steer by the stars
or do you have a bosun in the crow's nest
guiding you, telling you how near
or how far the next landfall is?
What do you feel you deserve?
The devil is truly in the details
What demon or god do you serve
in the seemingly countless choices?
What voice stirs you on,
on the horns of what dilemma
do you sit upon?
What triggers incite you,
what pleasures delight?
What thoughts invite you
to go that extra step?
What is your make-up,
what will it take to shake up
the house of cards you built for yourself
for it's up to you and no one else...
