confusion reigns just now for me
life moves forward
then steps back three
this way that way
a choice to make
a chance a risk
shall I take?
taking time to work things out
first a whisper then a shout
voices calling on the phone
unknown faces verbal tone
anger danger people scared
ringing me as if I cared
but care I do hence my confusion
this job’s for real
no illusion
