after heraklitas

One can’t wade into the same line of poetry twice.

Do those rushing shoals and fords then feel like shallows to you on second dip? Watch lest you stumble into depths unsuspected at your first cast.

But then, if I read your emphasis right, you may mean the second time through one must step delicately, touch the bottom with a sensitive toe, leave the waders at home, don't tread on the roe.
