                                The Critics not Taken

Everyone says we’re reading the poem all wrong -
“The Road not Taken” is about Edward Thomas
Joining the army or Robert Frost not
And why is one road less traveled and is that good?

Is it bad? And why is the wood yellow?
Who is prolonging the decision, and why?
Maybe the road not taken should be
Quoting it at every high school graduation

We’ve heard it so often that we want to say:
Just make a decision then go away!
