Simple (Poem)

Simple 

So very simple are the lines,

that seperate the times

that lead us to each choice,

and each decision in turn,

and each bond or burn.

Simple,

yet so very complex,

when on these thoughts we reflect,

navigating the web,

to see the intertwined,

and tangled skein.

Simple,

it starts out so simple,

and then begins to dimple,

and quake, and crack,

and split infinitely into many more,

opening a million other doors. 

Simple... and yet so not Simple
