POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
I like to look up words, even those in common parlance, if they
lead me to search for other implications, and think out things
for myself. We do not have to look for wise sayings by authors
and sages, mainly because nobody else, living or dead, can have
the same combination of circumstances and sensations that pass
through your mind.

I tried to pin down my fleeting thought by the chance combination of the words, 'undergo' and 'overcome'. I took my chance!
