A Shortcut.

A shortcut  is not the way
 it is a but a stay
 a loophole leads you  to a way
 but that is not the proper way
go by the direct axis
 though it is taxing
 hit the head straight
 it would prove right
 the encircling path
 would get you caught
well into the centre
never into the winter
go with the  reason
 you would not treason
 a lifelong move
with an accurate prove.
