"They also serve..."
How to not read that as a permanent posting to second string?
It's not. I know.
But with the key turned in the engine, and the motor revving,
How to keep it "burning, burning, burning 'til the break of day" as the old song says, waiting for the checkered release of the flag?
It seems one must come at the cost of the other
to run full-tilt at the windmills before, or to have it all "lodg'd with me useless."
But it must not.
It cannot.
There is time to be used, not whiled, and waiting to be done.
