Number Bias

There is a dilemma in my mind
the answer is really not so hard to find
but the numbers lead me otherwise
the choice will show it’s not so wise

So there’s now this moving confict inside
wait or go with the numbers to decide
my instinct says to follow them blindly
they always get me somewhere nicely

Why does it have to be this way?
Why does money have to be in the way?
which priority should be set highest?
should I follow them or am I just biased?

There’s one more think to consider
which just might serve as the trigger
the outcome does not worth so much wait
the numbers are there, my choice to make

I Choose Not To…

An opportunity has appeared
but I decided to not even try
as bad as it may sound or look
only I, can understand why

It’s one thing moving forward
it’s another enslaving myself
to what others call “better life”
I will remain on the same shelf

The reason is quite simple now
yet it is hard to be understood
I know myself and it’s too early
I ‘m not ready for the shoot

When will I be ready? you ask
when is it the right time then?
I know me, I like to take my time
hopefully not too late by then

People seem surprised at first
people seem to undermine me
the sacrifice is not worth it
and I see no benefitting me

In a “better life” where I lose me
I choose not to dive in

Cancellation

I ‘ve been thinking about it for long
sooner or later I got to finish the song
it’s been ages since I have started it
along with other projects that delayed it

Thinking that in order to complete this
it doesn’t have to be the bee’s knees
then again I need to cancel other things
to make the time to rock those strings

The tough thing to do is to decide what
can I put aside an existing project that
has been in the wait for a very long time
and nothing shows it will reach its prime

The reasonable thing to do is cancellation
but these projects are my mind’s salvation
putting it aside will probably do the trick
give it a second chance, let it be a future pick

Wishful Thinking

Eventually there will be progress
far from anything you ‘ve ever seen
artificial intelligence, virus, soldiers
scare you more you ‘ve ever been

Now that we are trying to be our best
things show up to remind us we are not
and while this one gets us all stressed
we ‘ll manage to be on top as we were taught

You may be calling this wishful thinking
as it focuses on progress and beyond that
however it might become quite misleading
and lose the argument to an AI chat

Technology is moving on quite fast
progress is inevitable which is good and bad
the future we talked about is here at last
the management of it though seems quite hard

The Way Forward

Words have no meaning
when people do not understand them
same as a bird in the evening
making noises above them

It took years of hard work
making it difficult to change
if you don’t like it just don’t
listen to it and turn the page

Of all the languages we speak
there’s one that has no sound
but without it how do you think?
how do your thoughts form or come out loud?

Fundamental questions on the rise
no time to think about them now
make me see with your own eyes
the best way forward somehow

Take control
put yourself together
first do the hard part then the rest
do things better
and that is all

be sure
be way up above
or better yet way up ahead
think this is what you love
think pure

always prepared
never miss a thing
choose carefully what your next move will be
become the smartest link
never be scared

insight and foresight
how do you get through
before you get into the fight of life
only one thing you must do
decide

on time!
