Clotho of the Past

Posted on January 2, 2014 by Charles Yallowitz
The Fates

The Fates

Spinner of the past
From birth
Until the now
Domain ever growing
Threatening to trap us
If we refuse to learn
And rise above our history

About Charles Yallowitz

Charles E. Yallowitz was born, raised, and educated in New York. Then he spent a few years in Florida, realized his fear of alligators, and moved back to the Empire State. When he isn't working hard on his epic fantasy stories, Charles can be found cooking or going on whatever adventure his son has planned for the day. 'Legends of Windemere' is his first series, but it certainly won't be his last.

    That’s what i love so much about history…the learning to rise above the past.

    They say history repeats itself. If so why don’t we take a hint and learn.
