Risk sits in twisted conflict
With safe secured stability
She elicits wondrous opportunity
And delicious possibility
Permitting dreams to germinate
To flourish
To navigate the drudgery
Encouraging voyage and discovery
With impeccable credentials
Risk sits twitching, fidgeting
Coaxing talent, desire, potential
Drawing transformation from the incremental
From the sedentary, the silent, the uneventful
Squeezing life from the lifeless
Light from the lightless
Hope from the hopeless
And love from the sadness
Of tears
Risk sits
Befittingly kissing the fiction of fear
