Savants who should know better
Keep telling me it’s best
To let things go; the next thing
You know they’ll be underground
Just like me, wishing they’d held on
To whatever they cherished
A wee bit more.

Thanks, Conrad. As for the question of whether or not it's time for a tome of Cinquor's apophthegmata, I'm certainly no gnomon when it comes to indicating which way his shadow's going to move, so I think it's best we ask him for his γνώμη concerning the matter.
