If One Hesitates to Produce, One Also Hesitates to Protect

Many do not do well,
In triumphanting with a purpose...
To declare victory,
With faith and beliefs.

Some rather march along as followers...
To relieve themselves of responsibilities.
And with 'that'...
Be accountability free.

Preferring to lay the blame on others,
Who aren't afraid to make decisions...
With a flow of actions directed.
If one hesitates to produce,
One also hesitates to protect.

And those who lead,
Do not assume a comfortability.
Their abilities and capabilities...
Are just not in constant doubt.
