Choice is just a ripple in
The river of one's fate,
A moment when one's consciousness
Stamps motion with a date.
A trillion causes join to form
One tremor in one's flow.
A trillion trillion trillion tell
One's will which way to go.
And yet one chooses, for one has
No choice but to be free,
And choose each bend of the widening stream
That takes one to the sea.
