Short poem about a twist of fate in 1968 (the assassination of Robert Kennedy)
Fate

Oh all the things that could have been
if only there'd been a shift in the wind
All the potential and possibilities untapped
because we went right instead of left
We wonder of all the greatness that may have awaited
or all the great tragedy we may have abated
If fate's twisted hand did not cruelly ordain
that this is the position where we must remain
