Inflexibility

truth is not always the answer,

some things are better left unsaid,

otherwise,

it is just too painful;

yet,

somehow we made it

to this land of middle age,

do you think it was the result of experience?

or simply an unfortunate side effect of

circumstance?

in the end,

we will slide away

like ghosts in the night,

with only faded memories

to light the way

and who will be the wiser?

you?

me?

I think not;

inflexibility,

is sometimes a blessing in disguise,

when faced with rigid decisions,

which call out with lascivious options,

somewhere in the middle

of this inept comedy.
