The Final Cause?
I know it now
as I knew
It then
The Force behind
the Will
of Men
now that I
know the
Errant Cause*
grieves me so
to give
due pause
as it did
when just
a boy
to know
with even
lesser joy
why women
build
and men
destroy
*
It is the Bane
of History
and why
we’re neither
safe nor free
* I have detailed this issue in many writings: most recently in, https://litvote.com/the-human-prospect/
