How To Converge Poem by Richard Jarboe

How To Converge



You got to diverge to converge,
Nothing's impossible, just considered impossible,
Visions of the Amazon made a printer quit his job
Float down the Ohio to the Mississippi down to New Orleans.
With no boats to the Amazon he stood on the dock
Where this man, Samuel Clemons became Mark Twain.

You have to diverge to converge,
You can explore blindly or do what's not been done methodically,
The point is not to get the point
The point is learning how to work hard and discover,
Because the point IS what it is whether you get it or not.
Simply prepare for failure and make plans in advance to cancel the result...
While you diverge to converge.
