Caught between the compulsion
To express an opinion that may help
And an awareness that my offering
May be pure ego and very much unappreciated,
I usually side with exercising
Mouth and jaw.
Sure, there’s a risk I’ll be perceived
As an asshole who understands nothing,
Failing to recognize the recipient of my excellent advice
Would gladly settle for a mumbled “tsh, tsh”.
Finally, I see I do have a choice,
And if I can slow down long enough to appreciate
The existence of an option,
Whatever I decide might just represent wisdom.
