AI Interpretation

GPT

This page titled 'Unless' links danger in change, time, a mother who trusted no one, an altered sky, stuck wings, a scarf crossing another's shoulder, sweetness, and the bitter friend.

The scan-verified oddities make the page feel physically typed rather than smoothed out. Its emotional hinge is still the closing reversal, where bitterness becomes the more trustworthy companion.

''''Unless' -- the danger in change not sounding its sound. Mother trusted no one; speaker trusted time. Can't get wings off the chair. 'The sweet shows its face / But it is the bitter that is your friend.''''
