Making plans
The idea has existed for years
Just sitting there, waiting
Lacking motivation
I just left the idea out there
To make sure I really wanted to
Once in a while I’d pick it up
Turn it over, look at it
Consider it and its implications
I still haven’t decided
But I haven’t undecided, either
I have started planning, though
Little bits and pieces
Tentatively, at first
What are my options?
Which of those do I like the most?
Which of those has the most success?
I still don’t know if I like this plan
At times I hate even the smallest parts of it
Or perhaps, it is fear
But creating this plan is not an active process
It happens in the times between, the empty moments
Slowly but surely, the plan forms, hardens, sets
Little details are sketched, drawn, coloured in
Will I execute my plan?
I do not know
For now, I am making it
Soon, I will know
