Along the edges of the valley by nature
kept low by nurture
A nervous disposition by heredity
kept quaking by environment
There is no family plan
no dawning to create a path
The hubris of confidence
The courage of safety
The energy of idleness
That terrible trinity becomes clear
and it's too late for anything to emerge
save for a wish that hindsight
was blind
