lwvanels (Lucien Van Elsen):
On a poem by Frost
Life would be simple indeed, Robert
If it were only two roads that diverged in the wood;
but I see hundreds
and hundreds more lie not ten feet beyond each one
so on and so forth forever and ever
the riddle of the hydra's heads seems trivial by comparison.
As for ``less traveled,'' well, the majority of those roads are left
less traveled for good reasons
the height of the grass is often a good liar.
The only thing that gives me any hope at all
is the faith (for we never know it as a fact)
that enough of those paths merge or eat their own tails
to make your picture right after all, in some renormalized way.
No question that a wall lies at the end of any road we chose.
