For Those Who Don't Recognize Opportunities

Deciding an opportunity,
One gets that comes.
Will await until a decision has been made,
By the one who perceives.

An opportunity staring in one's face,
Is obligated to stay in place.
Until that decision to take it has been done.
Should not stun the one.

Who gets an opportunity that abruptly leaves,
To be discussed with digust as a memory.
For those who do not recognize opportunities.
They will never experience them for what they are.
Or when to take them immediately.
