To Ask If There is Some Mistake (Robert Frost – Stopping By the Woods on a Snowy Evening) – hour TWO

To ask if there is some mistake

is to suggest I know

right from wrong

convex from concave

my place on a spectrum

I travel but don’t always get to define

or even see at all sometimes.

 

But I will answer because

that path calls out to me

subterranean and secret

as does a strident urge to

travel both by land and

by sea simultaneously.

Only philosophers and lazy people

see the choice as contradictory.
