V. What Shall I Do?

Look into my coffee cup, a long-awaited mystery
My life a race-car track, has started to feel blistery
Submit to the traces of order and go

Take time to do the things I want
Positive, events free or full of flaunt
When not on display, choice resides

Wake up when the sun shines
Read while the bell chimes
Ponder longer than one should to challenge the internal timer 

Oh! But what can lay here
However close one may hold them dear
Relying on open space takes an organizer

Trample old collections
Of internal misconceptions
And follow the fresh path, paved with special bias
