Two spaces diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not be in both And be one viewer, long I stood And looked into one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then looked at the other, just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim Because it was greasy and wanted wear, Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay In light no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two spaces diverged in a wood, and, I stepped into the one less a lullaby, And that has made all the difference.

it is long and scenic
and likes being taken
GPS negates detours

except for the GPS significance
