NaPoWriMo April 28th - Every Man Must Meet His Fate


Every man must meet his fate –
early or late –
his judgment day must come.

Each woman must know her reason –
in or out of season –
Her reckoning, bright or glum.

Every one must face their truth – 
branches and root – 
Or else the prize is scum.  

(Now, go back and substitute
woman/her in the first stanza
and man/his in the second.
We must have equality, mustn’t we?)

(The third line of each verse is 
interchangeable, i.e., any one fits 
with any verse.  Neat, huh?)
