At The Juncture Of Life

At the juncture of life, I stand

Beholding the labrynth of crossroads

That divulge before me

The question before me is obvious: which way folks?

Well, the path is chequered like a rainbow

Each straying divergently

Leading to unique Eldorado.

Entangled in a labyrinth of colours.

I see the path of economic prosperity

And another of intellectual prowess

Well, another path heads to political power

And also a path of social artistry, leading to fame.

A path with pale inscription i behold

Obviously leading to unpopular destination

And there is found the path to philosophy

And another path that leads to divinity

So my discernment faculty I need to invoke

To disentangle the labyrinth of choice before me

Choice is only golden

When done to justify oneself

And not that of others...
