Ep 154: Promises to Keep and Miles To Go Before I Sleep — Robert Frost, Snow, Horses, Conscience, and Duty


Listen Later

Harry and Rafe tackle Robert Frost's Stopping By Woods on a Snowy Evening, a simple four-stanza poem in iambic tetrameter.

The Bufnaglers walk through the poem and discuss the meanings, both revealed and hidden, and what they say to us today.  

Spoiler, if you haven't guessed: the horse is your conscience, telling you to stay true to your duty and responsibilities, no matter how lovely are the snow-filled woods.
