Commit

If I never commit, I never suck.
I committed!!!! So for today, I don't suck! ~ Anonymous friend

Inertia can seem a blessing,
for nobody sees you, pays attention.
If you're still enough maybe, perhaps,
they'll think you a statue, or portrait,
part of the furnishings.
And leave you alone.
Sitting in the back of the room,
avoiding eye contact, forbidding
your body to fidget
maybe they'll forget you,
ignore you, move on to others.
If I don't enter the contest
they'll not know my fear
of looking the fool,
of feeling stupid.
But where's the fun?
Why would I want to?
