We wait to see
where it's going,
what to make of it,
what to do.

Everything shakes out
by and by,
clarifies,
comes into focus.

In the meantime, we wait.
And watch,
and listen,
taking it all in
without judgment
or opinion.

There is this,
and that,
and those things
over there,
but what needs to be done
about any of it
is just wait.

Just wait to see what is called for.
Wait to see what is asked of us.
Wait to see what we do.

We just watch,
and listen,
and wait.

And when the time comes for action,
we act.

There is never any more to it
than this.

But we want to KNOW
what it's about
and why
and why not
and what it means
and what is going to happen
and if it will be worthwhile...

Because we hate not knowing,
and we hate waiting most of all.
Particularly waiting for what
we do not know.
