Author's Notes/Comments: 

I'm sure my father is smiling knowing he is next to this post (see previous poem) What started off as a simple idea of using words that tie into this site; became something much more. Amazing. There's much more I could have added. Most are in sequence too. You can check it out yourself. Incredible. Can't seem to fix the link, btw.

I hope this will not seem

I hope this will not seem like a trespass, because I am asking in good faith, but would you mind to explicate this poem for me?  I love Latin phrases, but somehow---entirely my fault---I am missing the point of the poem.  Looks like you put a lot of thought into it, especially collecting those great Latin lines, and so, with respect, I would like to understand it better.
