Suspended.
Disbelief suspended,
Mischief invented:
The dominion of dreams
Aflicker with potential,
Afloat with the tangential,
Where daredevils set sail,
Hypnotic courage ablaze,
Hurtling, untethered, towards
The lands of Maybe, or Never...

Thank you, Keith, for your comment, I appreciate it!
I must agree with MC. This poem speaks of excuses and never the conclusive.
Thanks,

Thank you very much, M.C., for your comment, I find the connection you drew fascinating! 😎
Reminds me of my situation at the hands of successive medicos who are arch-exponents of the terms "might be", "could be"
and "may be". 😏
