Coursing

poem by: John Prophet
Written on May 12, 2021 

Coursing.
Coursing
through
existence.
Eyes open,
journey
begins.
Starting point
determined.
Accident of
birth.
Genetics
laid out.
Accident
of birth.
Path?
To be
determined.
Who we
become
will be
the result.
The result
of decisions.
Decisions
made.
Undulating
progress.
Coursing
through
time.
Winding
river the
odyssey
be.
Sculpting
the journey
determines
the path.
President
or
homeless.
There’s
a path for
each.
Everything
in between.
Decisions
made
determines
outcome.
Masters
of destiny.
Personal
destiny.
Choose
wisely.
The futures
at stake.
