Notes About The Poem

An extract from my epic poem The Way of Trilobites, available on Amazon. See my book links.

What Leave the Fates Decree

To Hades, black as ink, our souls shall sink,
And all our lives are gone within a wink!

Yet fleeting! E’er so fleeting! Though it be,
So well we love what leave the Fates decree.
