Straight

How straight the path I could enforce,
and straight the thought I might have course,
or straight quantities faked remorse,
then straight the entrance without force!

Yet straight the buckling of divorce,
still straight the line between two ports,
or straight the railing on the porch
but straight the shot ~ I can't endorse!

The curve ~ contingencies exhort,
is semi laden with export,
go one, with nature's true report,
as life unerring stays the source!
