Match Point

by William S Cottringer — Read all 146 poems by William S Cottringer

A short poem about transformation.

Monday, October 16, 2006


Poem Artwork
Tipping point,

Tripping point,

Or match point?

What is the point?

‘Butterfly Effect I & II;’

It’s like Déjà vu

All over again.

Yoda had it right;

Do or not;

There’s no trying.

Grab your meaning,

Embrace your passion,

Think and act,

With final commitment;

Choose your side,

Slow down,

Look and listen,

For all the clues

Along the only point-

The point of no return.

Catch it before

It comes and goes;

That’s your match point.
