between a hard spot & a rock

interesting place
between a hard spot & a rock.
kinda' like fallen 'tween
the boat & the dock.
makes a man stand back
and take a little stock.

can't retreat.
can't pursue.
what's a poor fellar' to do?

can't slip ta' the back
'fraid i ain't that agile.
can't slide ta' the side
guess my hearts to fragile.

can't re-trace.
can't un-do.
just have to face.
what else can a poor fellar do?

interesting place
'tween a hard spot & a rock.
makes a man stand back
'n take a little stock.

Frustrations well-displayed.

I think the last line of the 3rd stanza should read:

"guess my heart's too fragile".

Keep writing.....
