"One should control impulsive actions to avoid regret ". Examine this.

In regard to the poem, Farewell to Barn and Stack and Tree by A. E. Housman, we are provided with the empathetic expression of someone who suffers great guilt.... a guilt so great that it leads him to leave everything he knows and enter a self-imposed isolation. From the text, we can infer that the speaker took the life of his brother during an argument, an impulsive act of anger..... the kind you can't take back. Impulsiveness, the failure to think before he acted, left the speaker with a guilt he can never get rid of.
