break the egg and stir the pool





pleasing people at every moment

promoting a false notion of good

without expressing informed opinion

i remain not a relevant leader



without breaking the delicate egg

neither will a new chick come to life

nor will i ever enjoy an omelet

for an early or that late breakfast



no one ever received a healing

at the ancient pool of old Bethesda

unless the good angel from heaven

cared to stir the puddle with its mud
