Two roads diverged in a wood and I, I took the one less traveled by.

The boy with the life split in two

Chases the dreams down each magic road.

Pressure increased until his life diverged.

One boy with knick knacks crammed in

His pockets. Exploring the woods looking for a

Friend. The other boy made of smooth wood.

He longed for the oceans, but trapped in leaves and

branches, he could not go. This tale, of which I

was suspicious of its truth, is passed from each generation. I

Had to know and with a brown bag, I took

The step off my porch. Discovering the woods, the

Shadows danced. Plunging purposefully, I spotted one

Of the boys. It can't be. He sat, made of wood, but no less

Real. Another boy soon came, looking as if he traveled

By water. I left the brothers and walked on by.
