Autoplay

Few causal kernel learn, discern
fiction from fact when Fate's swift foaming churn
has keeled blind optimism stem to stern.
Mortal remains remain of slight concern,
[s]weep onwards when the point of no return
is passed because experience most spurn,
find double bind, blind, earn no second turn.
Pale fears, tears unavailing, bridges burn.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM

for previous version see below

Fate late from early never may discern,
mortal remains remain of no concern,
[s]weeps onwards when the point of no return
is passed because experience can't earn
from double bind a chance for second turn.
Pale fears, tears unavailing, bridges burn.
