             CONTROL
        By ... Steve Lucky

For one to keep things under control,
The challenge must be within reach.
Unless one can complete the goal
One will not be able to teach
Anyone else how to handle the situation
Because the solution is not known.
In the case of an unexpected complication,
The challenge itself must be faced alone.
As long as the goal is achievable,
One can find the proper solution.
When an answer appears believable,
It might lead to a revolution.
Control is not always something one can grasp.
Complications may cause one to gasp.
