if I were my heart,
in an age-old battle
with good ol’ mind;
and I was told to
(by me)
“get along now,
love each other”
would I follow (me)
or continue still
to uphold tradition,
and battle harder?
then simply say,
“I’ll leave that
to do tomorrow.”
will that tomorrow
ever be realized?

As I read this, Rachel Maddow is on TV talking about how difficult it is to vote in many U.S. states. Will the future ever be different, you ask. Indeed! Good people stand aside and let evil florish. We could make a different future, but only if we all do something SOON!

Good ol' battle between the heart and the mind. Liked the juxtaposition of yourself and yourself. Either way, you win. Nice write.

Heart vs Mind, good one Vin. Mind takes over but at times its the heart route all the way.
