The Program
Born with anguish; guiltless and keen
Beautiful in entirety; new and green
Free of presumption; too humble to walk
Free of knowledge; too naive to talk.
Free of ambition, slow to canvas
Free of worries, slow to obsess
Unconscious to life's deadlock and impasse
Unaware of life's later reverse
Time flies; The seedling comes of age
Epiphanized in the turning of a brand new page.
The clash of synchronicity and resolute sway
The introduction of a program called Fate
Preposterous climacters; unconfined diminuendo of time
Irksome reminiscences of green days behind.
About this poem
This poem was concocted from the ideas of Fate as an unstoppable controller of happenings and the growth of ideas and plans in a person. When a man is born into the world, he is free of challenges and pain. He sees only the beauty of life in the calm nature around him. However, that only makes up his sweet reminiscences when a "program" called "Fate" steps in.
