Considering My Cynicism In consideration of the value of cynicism to my life (for I could not know what value it truly is to others) I choose the numerous examples of fair women here And my inability to see in myself worthiness of them (not worthiness in the moral sense, but pragmatically, Stating the fact undisguised by pretensions to equality.) Given that my choices with myriad circumstances Resulted in my self-view and present conditions in life Cynicism towards me ought to goad changing my ways. I can better my ability to beneficially manage the future And bring sweeter results to abound around me daily By bringing sweetness up inside by wisdom and will. I ought to find my ability to deal daily and hourly With all deviltry and assaults, even under a rainbow, Maintaining my ability to respond with wicked speed And darting deadliness; all with competent sang-froid I choose to maintain composure and my outlook view To my self-willed generosity of spirit, yet cynical be, Pragmatically realistic that any misfortune might come At any and all sequence of moments, ‘til mortality ends Thus, I choose sweetness with cynical realism on guard For I enjoy sugar and cream in coffee, as my choice But sip black and bitter to know its natural essence. These choices are the best destiny that I presently shape Of the myriad blessings of God that shower upon me. A wiser person (and there are millions) noted this truth: The difference between adventure and disaster is preparation. Being prepared, I can wear a smile to the cliff’s edge, For it is not cynical to tie off a rope before climbing Nor secure helmet against inevitable falling stones And doubly test and prove handholds and footholds Lest I become dependent upon luck rather than skill I’ve fallen to the bottom of the cliff before, And I’ve also deliberately gone down the cliff I choose to climb again, smiling at the risks all the while For I am whom I choose to be and to become And I choose sweetness and cream in my coffee. |
