Afraid No More

It's at times like this, where procrastination becomes a part of us

'Tomorrow never comes,' a quote I've heard since grammar school

I shudder in my heart, knowingly and unknowingly

Shudder at the thought of what's to be done today

I want to procrastinate it to tomorrow

A tomorrow that may take forever to come

Many wars fought in this world

Fought by a people controlled by the spirit of fear

Though they admit it not, but this spirit so wicked

A catalyst to many wars is

A lot of times, we fear unconsciously

Human beings make wrong decisions

This they do when AFRAID!

And tomorrow comes too soon while we delay doing the right thing… Especially when it comes to war. It seems that the Arab Spring is being delayed by bitter wars. But I know it takes time, just like it took time for the Soviet Union to come down (in some ways it isn't there yet) and eons for the Catholic church to reform, these things take time and we must have patience if we are to "fear no more."

You have said it right, Mary, absolutely right. Making decisions when we are afraid is a horrible way to conduct your life. I know. Been there. Done that. It made up my two lost decades. Good write . . .

Yes! I agree, Mary; and sadly, we humans (Earthians) do not seem to learn. I appreciate your insights. Love and best wishes to you,

Great poetic insight! I like the saying by General Patton, "A GOOD PLAN done TODAY is better than a PERFECT PLAN done tomorrow". Amen!

Say Something Terrorible v3 by RickthePoetWarrior

My mom says ‘If you can’t say anything nice then don’t say anything’. Sorry mom but under the guise of poetic license I penned these beauties.
