With no ledger to fix
Time, memory’s allowed
Without accountability.
It rebuffs reason’s harsh
Causal relationships
As unnecessary chains.
Yes, that trailed this,
But more of a simple
Coincidence than a confluence
Of desires. You know this;
Yet, like him, still believe
What you will manifests
As fate, an inevitable
Flowering of happenstance.
