Factor In the Fickleness of Fortune

A number poem about how best to dream as one gets older: Factor in the fickleness of fortune In calculating charts that can be read. For though the numbers do not lie, the data Trend towards unknown variables instead. Yet one must dream, albeit with more caution. There is no substitute for an equation. When one’s a certain age, there is less later. One dreams more wisely as one looks ahead. © by Nicholas Gordon Audio and Video Music: Timeless. By Lauren Duski. Music free to use at YouTube.
