   Action not Taken
Two choices lay before us
The one was easy, just carry on,
The other strict and demanding.

We stalled and wavered
Uncertain how much would change.
We dithered and delayed
Waiting for others to move first.

And there were those who sought
To distract and disinform.
Convince us that there was
No need for a second way.

But those who were alarmed
Told us we were compelled
To act, to change our ways
Before it was finally too late.

Two choices lay before us
But we took the easier one
And that has made
A world of difference.
