impetuous

leapt before looked
and disliked where i had landed
extricated carelessly
left bits of me behind
wandered willy-nilly
without watching
where i'm walking
until i got so lost
a path i couldn't find
vowed to plan
each step precisely
until by fear immobilized
stuck in the muck
of my own making
for too long
impetuous or cautious
forward motion
is the answer
and stop caring
if the steps I'm taking
right or left
are right or wrong
