Interesting. I had a couple thoughts when writing that poem. One was that I just didn’t act fast enough and someone else changed the world before I could, and so I was changed by it.
The other was just about learning to let go and not resist. So often we look at the world around us and even the people in it and want to make changes to it (or them). However, if we let go of that desire to conquer and control, and just let ourselves be a part of what is already here, we change, and often in a good way.
