Anyone's Prerogative

You can change your

mind, you know.

You have the ability.

You have the right.

You have permission.

If you find you need a

course correction

mid-stream, it's okay.

Our lives and choices

can be fluid--

like life itself--

 ever-changing,

though that is not 

what's presented.

Illusions of 'being stuck'

and mired exist to make

cowards feel less alone.

The world makes thoughts, lives,

and people seem black-and-white,

one-dimensional,

easily understood,

set-in-stone, limited...

but we're not.
