May 16: Adjuration - A solemn and earnest appeal to someone to do something
At least once in your lifetime
you have or had a duty
Because someone else depended on the deed
Or you depended on the deed
So did you do it?
How did you do it?
Did you do it with heart
Or sincerity?
Have you done it again
Or was it something never to be done again?
I hope whatever you did
Was worth it?
It must have changed your life completely
Change, as in
You wouldn’t be here if you didn’t do it.
Why did you do it?
Was it because you had a sense of duty
Or did you do it because you wanted to?
Were you influenced
Or did you do it because you wanted to?
Whatever you did
Whatever you had to do
I hope you don’t regret it
Or perhaps you haven’t done it
Are you waiting?
Shucks, I’m waiting too
I claim to be planning
It’s a half-truth
You must be planning, too
Maybe, you’re not
Maybe, you’re conflicted
Maybe you’re at a crossroads
Which way should you go?
What will you do then?
How will you find out?
Flip a coin?
Heads, you go right
And tails, you go left?
So you flip the coin,
But you don’t show yourself the answer immediately
Are you afraid of the answer?
Isn’ the suspense killing you?
So you take your palm off.
Heads.
You go left.
The coin doesn’t matter now.
It doesn’t matter
Because you know what you need to do.
