how do you make a decision
when you decide to make a decision?
I tend to delay
until a decision is made for me

do you wait for external forces
or signals from something deep within
and if within, is it from the head, heart, groin
eye, ear, ankle, knee?

Bonjour ! I’ll continue to write about my favorite French-inspired things, as well as books, chocolate, music, movies, and postcards, but to change things up a bit, I will also share a 50-word poem each day in the month of January!

These micro-poems are based on personal observations, pesky intrusive thoughts, and general anxiety about getting older.

Thanks for reading!

This poem is from my poem-a-day series (January 2024).
