In "Do not go gentle into that good night" by Dylan Thomas, the disability (incapacity) that provokes wise men into not meeting death gently is:
- Their incapacity to leave a mark in the world, to make a difference.
In the second stanza of the poem "Do not go gentle into that good night," the speaker says that wise men know very well that death is natural and will happen to all of us.
Yet, there is something that does not allow them to just meet death gently:
<em>Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
</em>
<em>Because their words had forked no lightning they
</em>
<em>Do not go gentle into that good night.</em>
<em />
When the speaker says, "their words had forked no lightning," what he means is that these wise men do not wish to die because they still haven't left their mark in the world.
They want to fight death, stay alive, so that they can make a difference.
Therefore, we can say that their incapacity to leave a mark in the world is what provokes them into not meeting death gently.
