Self fulfilling Prophecy

Self fulfilling prophecy

Imagine you are in a Battle
and you see a vision
of your own death so you go absent without leave

But it's the first world war
and your caught and shot
at dawn for cowardice.
Is this the death you foretold?

Or did you avoid your fate
of dying on the battle field
only for the executioner
to complete fates job.
