Obedient Hands Serve the Mind

The mind moves the hand.
The hand is the means.
The end lies inside the mind.
The mind judges the ends.
The mind judges the means.
The hand obeys.

The mind must choose.
The foot can only tread one path at a time.
Means are forsaken.
The mind is mistaken.
The end is not reached.
Time to reassess.

The forsaken means
Are the costs of reaching
The ends the mind has chosen.
Satisfaction is the profit experienced when
Forsaken means are valued less than the accomplished ends.

Descartes thought and he was.
Beethoven played and I cried.
The Red King dreamed and Alice lived.
The mind creates and destroys.
The hand obeys.
