Will SOMEBODY tell me HOW TO STOP?

Will SOMEBODY tell me HOW TO STOP?


I know
The PATHLESS PATH
I know not
How to WALK
UNWALKED.

I know
How to walk UNWALKED
I know not
How to UNWALK UNWALKED

I know
How to UNWALK UNWALKED
I know not
How to STOP

I need to STOP
To UNWALK UNWALKED

LOL! Did you walk yourself into this one with your eyes open? ;) Walking yourself out is quite a maze. Anyway left me in a little daze! Hahaha! Clever manipulation of the language.

I love how you transition from one stanza to the next stanza, from the known to the unknown to the known again, *I know The PATHLESS PATH* but not *How to WALK UNWALKED* - then you realize that to WALK UNWALKED...you simply have to know *How to UNWALK UNWALKED* and how do you UNWALK UNWALKED? You discover the next logical step - knowing how to stop will get you to UNWALK UNWALKED which will get you to WALK UNWALKED so that you can walk the pathless path...It's like you're working backwards trying to get to the solution through the answer. You have to understand the process as a whole. Whew! That was a tough one Shardok! :-)

oops, I meant It's like you're working backwards trying to understand the equation using the solution...I know you like it when I make my long comments even longer! hehe
