On Repeat
Wake
from the dark and prepare yourself.
Arrive
at the expected place.
Fight
for knowledge you didn’t have before.
Fail
to prevent the tragedy you know is coming.
Die
and return to the blackness.
Wake
with determination to try again.
Arrive
at an unexpected place.
Fight
with all the knowledge you have gained.
Fail
to prevent the outcome—again.
Die
knowing it will be more of the same tomorrow.
Wake
and rise with a new plan.
Arrive
at the door of a friend for help.
Fight
on multiple fronts, no longer acting alone.
Fail
to produce the perfect outcome.
Live
knowing you have done your best.
Proceed
without dwelling on what can no longer be changed.
