Weight as Fate - edit, title change

[brynmawr1]

Weight as Fate


Gravity fails not
nor varies, yet wind blows;
breath and birds defy it
while they live
each cast-off feather falling
to its waiting rest
unforeseeable, unique.

Weight as Destiny


Gravity fails not
nor varies yet wind blows
and breath and birds defy it
while they live
each cast-off feather falling
to its waiting rest
unforeseeable, unique.

First, I really like the poem.  I do have a suggestion for the title.  I first thought of "Stochastic" or "Stochasticity" but they seemed a little blah. But with a little digging I came across "Bohmian Mechanics".  A little more deterministic but much more poetic, I think.  Not to under cut my own suggestion, I also think something simple like "Fate" or "Destiny" work as well.  To me the poem is not about gravity but about the unpredictable nature of life as juxtaposed with the predictable force of gravity(life's burdens).
