All Roads Are Taken

This is a tribute to Robert Frost’s “The Road Not Taken”, with a nod to the amazing laws of Quantum Physics

All Roads Are Taken

A fork in my Path appeared ahead,

and with quantum physics as my guide,

I suspended logic, and, with little dread,

used multi-worlds theory in its stead,

and followed both branches, as yet untried.

In this Reality, I continued on,

while another me trudged the other way.

As time passed, the branch was gone,

and, without regret, I walked alone,

but think of other roads each day.

Other choices would, I knew, appear,

and I’d travel each, as another me.

I’d face each decision without fear,

knowing, that, while I stay here,

different horizons my “others” see.

With this Illusion passed away,

peering through the undergrowth,

another me will stand and say,

“I’ll save this route for another day,”

but will end up travelling both!
