A leaf was riven from a tree, “I mean to fall to earth,” said he The west wind, rising, made him veer. “Eastward,” said he, “I now shall steer.” The east wind rose with greater force. Said he: “ ‘Twere wise to change my course" With equal power they content. He said “My judgment I suspend.” Down died the winds, the leaf, elate, Cried, “I’ve decided to fall straight.” ~ Ambrose Bierce.
