DECISIONS TWO

Sometimes
when you least expect it
(I HATE trite sayings,
even though I use
them all the time)
but sometimes
decisions DEMAND
to be made and you
can't avoid
choosing between
two hard outcomes
where  you think
there's very little good
on either side of this
decision, but you're
mitigating against
the lesser of two evils
(trite saying #2)
Still decisions
have to be made
what to eat
breathe
where to lay your head
whether you're going
to let this one or that
into your inner circle
(trite saying #3)
but you have to decide
because your life
really does
depend on it
and not everyone
can have space
in your soul
remember that
when you're
trying to decide
