This way and that,the pendulum swings,

Friction brings it to a halt,forcing a decison.

My mind wanders registering a million options,

Resisting any force attempting to narrow its scope,

An eternal desire to change direction,

Will this thirst be quenched by switching paths?

Or is it just ennui and curiosity nudging it to seek the unknown?

Like a linguistically challenged child,unable to convey her thoughts,

My restless mind struggles,

And I continue to toil in my quest to satisfy it,by a tedious process of elimination.
