The Fate of Free Will, Retrospect, and "It Doesn't Matter What You Do, Just Do What You Love."
The Fate of Free Will
Let your feelings prevail
Even those with callous intentions
Let your feelings prevail
Even those with callous intentions
For what is action without will's tales?
Wrought from life's many merciful inventions
Wrought from life's many merciful inventions
Insensitive to a life frail
6 And full of chance's contention
But when chance contends with fate
What is innate?
Fate is not for everyone
To some there is nothing more incidental
But when chance contends with fate
What is innate?
Fate is not for everyone
To some there is nothing more incidental
Than fortune and its fun
12 And if their motion is guided by fate's principals
Then their motion would be none
Then their motion would be none
And inconsequential
What they feel didn't have to be felt
What they feel didn't have to be felt
But feeling helped
The rest are resigned to their fortune's path
18 If that pebble in the road becomes a stepping stone
That you trip over then laugh
What was preached and promised and always known
Is that that rail you couldn't grasp
Because you knew that your hand would miss
The questions that your sanity would ask
24 Your sanity similarly, couldn't grab
Neither can be left to chance
For fate will not let an escape
Come from a scripted dance
The tale of the tape
And how it knows to prance
30 Is trapped in free will's freight
And what couldn't be known
Is what what was always shown
Free will's fun
Resides in what comes
Retrospect
For the poet far
In front of those who think that
Being old is cool
"It Doesn't Matter What You Do, Just Do What You Love."
Hey kids! I have a very important message to give
It doesn't matter what you love to do
Truly, it won't matter for as long as you live
Always, always, always do what you love to
You, young woman, what do you love?
6 "I love to ride bicycles."
For life you'll wear a cyclist's gloves
You're going to ride many a-miles
And young man, for what are you forlorn?
"I really love to watch my mom cook. I love to cook too."
A spatula will your hands forever adorn
12 Many happy stomachs are in your future I view
What about you? And You?
What do you all love?
"I love to read!"
Writer
"I love basketball!
18 The NBA
"I love animals!" "Clothing!" "Helping people!"
Veterinarian! Fashion designer! Nurse!
"I love to kill things!" "I love to hurt!"
That you trip over then laugh
