Dilemma



I hounded ravenously, for ages
Felt it at hand’s reach
Only to let it drift away

Gave up hopes, almost
Saw them dissipate, the dreams
Wallowed in self-pity

Then I lay dormant
For lack of resolve
And it swims by, without warning

Now it’s at my feet
Beseeching for attention
I pay none
…that strange thing called dilemma!
