Two Ways

Strange place, strange ways, each stay away!

Then why are there two roads to take?

The maps and paths, and followed tracks.

And Google, Waze, we trust their facts.

Turn left, turn right we let it steer.

To miss a turn, we start to fear.

Across to tolls, collect control.

Like little soldiers, do as told.

Planned flights and crowds, comfort in traps.

Are we confined in our skin wraps?

Some lost, pretend to just be found.

Some found, act lost, pretty profound.

To take that step, the unprotected. 

To turn towards, the unexpected.

A wasteful plan, we must forget it.

Insane repeat, and do we test it?

Misdirection, to find us love.

Misdirection, to find us trends.

Misdirection, finds ideas.

Misdirection, to find us friends.

Misdirection to free in stress.

Misdirection leaves no regrets.

Let one misdirection find you.

Let one misdirection guide you.

Let one misdirection define

And be the reason, you are you.

I have a percetion and thinking that soldiers are great. I literally admire their personalities. You are the first man who changed my view and realize me that they are robotic and under control.
your poem defines the reality of todays world and reality of ou human too that ho much today we are in control of technologies and pressure of this world that we fear to take a step which we want to, we fear to make mistake without realizing how much it is good to make mistakes.

the poem is worthy to be praised.
Thank you sooo much for sharing :)

Our lives so full of controls we feel we can't live without. A fear of leaving our comfort zone lest we get hurt or lost. This poem is incredible. The power of control over us. Awesome job! I look forward to reading more of your work.

I love the way this poem sounds. It begs to be read aloud so you the rhythm and rhyme can really be heard. All of the themes and issues you draw on come together really well. Nice job!

"Misdirection leaves no regrets." This line really struck me. Seems like a new motto I need to incorporate into my life. You have a knack at modern imagery.
