Love the metaphor. Things not to do, paths not to take, however enticing. Maybe at another time of life I might have gone there. Getting old and letting go, mourning the irretrievable past, youth.
The ponies run, the girls are young
The odds are there to beat
You win a while and then it’s done
Your little winning streak
(Leonard Cohen)
