Quandary

Perplexing pickle, plight, predicament,

a messy muddle leaves me wishing I

could huddle with the wisest of the wise

to hear their take on what is clearly something

of a sticky wicket, bind, a jam, a fix, dilemma 

I'm sure  we'll find was only temporary but ...

Still I'm stewing as more difficulty's brewing

and keeps stirring up a mare's nest (a what?) 

of trouble. True, it's not all mine to bear but

at the moment, here within the quandary,

it feels like that and you may quote me,

if you want. As waves of indecision and

uncertainty pick up speed and crash

around me, I'm so grateful to be lashed

upon a rock that doesn't move. Unless

of course I drown and cannot swim away
to freedom. Talk about a downer.
That would freakin' suck.
