How Good to See You Here

Good is only ever in the givens.
Given this, that, and the other thing, then
Something is relatively good enough,
Something is relatively good or not.

Lucky for you, life’s nothing but givens.
Given your life at this moment, right now,
What happens next could well be good enough,
Good enough, at least, whether good or not.

You thought you made the decision to go,
And then it didn’t work out. Nonetheless,
Given it didn’t work out, aren’t you glad

You didn’t go, you couldn’t go, given
All the good events that have happened since?
Given you’re here, that’s good experience.
