What To Do

---

What to do, What to do,

the question that must riddle us all.

We put and put and put it off

until it is time to absolutely know,

and some of us do and some of us don’t.

Some know just what to do,

they have this one thing that they would love to pursue.

Some have just what to do thrust upon them,

whether by parents or comrades or life it matters not,

they still know just what they are going to do.

But others, those conflicted, confounded, confused few,

whether they have no clue what to do

or if they have so many things that they what to do

that they have no idea which they will pursue.

Both parties still are baffled, befuddled, and bemused

at the prospect of having to choose

what they will be stuck doing

more like than not for the rest of their days,

their so many yet so few days they have left on our planet Earth.

They stutter and stumble and fall when the time comes around

that they must choose:

What to do?  What to do?
