Repetition

Once is never quite enough, Once again feels more like trust. Once more, close to sure— Eat, has eaten, ate, will eat— Breath itself repeats, A ritual done compulsively, Yet never fully satisfied. Like tasting twice, the second time charms, Knowledge grows through shifting views, Education’s pulse is repetition’s arms. Sometimes, a new truth breaks through, But the next generation— History rewritten, old made new. To learn just once is perilous, my friend, To keep vital truths alive, Stay curious, hungry—for what you think you know, It’s not fresh facts, but the rhythm that thrives. From the corner of my eye, I catch a glimpse— Not enough, I seek a retake, To still the mind’s restless whispering. At its core, the brain’s a tireless gossip, Finding joy in repetition’s simple act, Without it, a vacuum swells with doubt, So we repeat—to anchor, to trust, to act.
