Dear Fence Sitter
I admire your stance
even your prance
your willy nillyisms
your many
here now here there
everywhereisms
your being here even when not here
your being there even when not there
I like your threesome awesomeness
your vow to every other persons
your free birdisms
I envy your courage and your intrepid nature
your chance takings and safe landings
your identity seeking
safeguarding your moorings
stepping out gingerly
I like the close monitoring from far away
your ‘my eyes are on you baby’
posturing even when turning away
I like these commitments
of staying non-committed
and no-comments plz attitudisms
Hats off to your now pro, now anti
sloganeering
some call it engineering!
dear fence sitter
riding the pendulum of life and living
of gain and giving
my sympathies are with you
no, I empathize with you
don’t I know the feelings all too well!
Ps: To take a stand or not to take a stand
