What would you do���

What would you do���

A Poem by Richard Dotson, Jr.

What would you do for true love?
Would you scratch, claw, and kill or go out peaceful like a dove?
What would you do if your life was on the line?
Would you bust your guns to keep it or take yourself out with the nine?
What would you do if life deals you bad cards?
Would you keep your composure or break apart like glass shards?
What would you do if you were pushed to the limit?
Would you go out swinging or would you go out timid?
What would you do when you lose the comfort of friends?
Would you brush the dust off or walk the madness until it ends?
What would do if love has you confused?
Would you work it out or continue being battered and bruised?
What would you do when your world turns cold as ice?
Would you fight for warmth or succumb to the roll of the dice?
What would you do if you love something but your heart never burns?
Would you try to spark a flame or will the fire extinguish as the world turns?
What would you do if you feel like a victim of voodoo?
Would you fall prey to the spell or break free knowing what you would do?
