Crises

Crisis

So there we were

In the middle of a crisis

Without a doubt

That things were great

For all that was dangled

We never took the bait

Of our downfall

Or our total recall

Some things just occur too late

Being as we are

Stupid in the middle

As facts are spread

Around the riddle

Of piddling expectation

As we play our fiddle

While diddling with ourselves
