Nostalgia for the Road Not Taken
The sky boasts shades of black and morbid grey
Accentuating roses long frostbit
That lay the path not take and put display
Mockery of being once quite smit'
Though Frost han’t known through which fire or ice
From what I've learned and grown to tire
I argue that fire would very much suffice
For self inflicted burns, I shan’t desire
Aside from gain of sweets and all things floral
and life not unlike a German reich
From which I gained a much needed moral
To n’er act in such naiivity like --
Dismissing chances of great permanence
By idling with things impertinence.
