Question
bold,
This morning I looked at the map of the day
And said to myself, "This is the way! This is the way I will go;
Thus shall I range on the roads of achievement,
The way is so clear—it shall all be a joy on the lines marked out."
And then as I went came a place that was strange,—
'Twas a place not down on the map!
And I stumbled and fell and lay in the weeds,
And looked on the day with rue.,superscript,1,baseline,
I am learning a little—never to be sure—
To be positive only with what is past,
And to peer sometimes at the things to come
As a wanderer treading the night
When the mazy,superscript,2,baseline, stars neither point nor beckon,
And of all the roads, no road is sure.
(from "Experience" by Carl Sandburg, published as Charles A. Sandburg)
