Quest Shuns.

Can I?
Could I?
Would I?
Should I?
Choices loom,
small lights in the gloom,
setting fire to desire,
consume hue and cry,
where and why?
questions raised and thoughts appraised,
conjecture of substructure,
constructions of digressions,
contentious ministrations,
etheric enunciations,
pronounced denunciations,
emancipated,
starved and medicated,
force fed
but still dedicated,
assigned and allied,
decrees heeded then forgotten,
practicing lessons learned
from pages turned.
