You cannot Put a Fire Out
by Emily Dickinson
You cannot put a fire out
A thing that can Ignite
Can go, itself, without a fan
Upon the slowest night.
You cannot fold a flood
And put it in a drawer, -
Because the winds would find it out.
And tell your cedar floor
You cannot create a solution to a problem you did not cause.
it is dangerous to misunderstand the power of nature.
Nature is strong and cruel
It is pointless to try to control that which is uncontrollable.
