Each Side Has Its Risks

Each side has its risks Do nothing and die suddenly from a rupture Operate and be disabled by one of many complications Watch and wait And perhaps it will be too late Accept the authority of the doctors And ignore what you alone know about yourself Defy the doctors and be a layman fool Who really does not understand and know what he is doing Make a decision now and relieve yourself from the stress of indecision Make a decision now and ignore changing reality that might have the answer For now I do not know what to do And wait in worry Until the next moment of decision comes And I am helped to choose The better risk.
