Di ko pa alam kung ano ba ang magandang isulat dito sa blog. Nakaka-intimidate din pala. Di lang ako siguro sanay, no?

Eniweys, eto na lang. In the spirit of Green Day-Good Riddance song, the godfather passage of fate-poems. One of my favorites. Apparently, Frost was asked to explain what this famous poem really means, and true to his capriciousness he said he was merely talking about a road he literally just walks on everyday, nothing more, nothing less. Oks ba? What else do you expect the genius would say? For y'all.

=====================

The Road Not Taken
Robert Frost

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that, the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
two roads diverged in a wood, and I --
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
