two men were playing a game of billiards

the winner could decide whether important decisions were

taken by an individual who was deemed to be the most

knowledgeable or whether important issues should be decided

collectively (democratically)

the game was being viewed from the 'spot' end of the table

the stroke was played and the red ball went into the

left-middle pocket and the white was rolling toward the same

pocket

the ball got as close as it was possible to get to the edge of

the pocket without falling in

i woke up to the sound of my own "oooooowhh"

interpretation/analysis          

how, when the situation exists that the right decision is not

clear-cut, do we arrive at the answer ?

the greatest quantity and quality of life ?
