The Stutter

The Stutter

A Poem by andrew mitchell

The Stutter.
 
Was not the stutter
a pause to reflect,
an indecision
on what might evolve,
and become,
what may transcend
to take back,
momentarily
not sure,
choose another path
repercussions hang
in the balance,
confidence in the making:
growth or shattered,
all  pronounced
in a word,
a stutter.
That pause!

That stutter is a sign that one's thoughts are not in line with one's desires. Either jump in or get the hell out of there. When it's right ... there is no stutter:) Great write, Andrew:)

I agree pryde And thanks so much for dropping by.
and that pause is often smart thinking...

pausing before saying something we might regret?
good idea...sooner or later we find just the right words.
