Letting Go

You can’t beat fate with the stars in alignment You can’t beat fate all your ducks in a row You can’t beat fate with your words in confinement You can’t beat fate —till you let it all go (Dreamsleep: March, 2023)

I write about fate in my poems but I really don't believe in it, I'm not sure it could be done since those 3 sisters plan out your entire life. I am certain you will let me know:)

One of my favorite mountain towns in Oregon is called 3 Sisters. That was my point, letting go of the concept (like many strictures and concepts) sets you free. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Sisters_(Oregon)
