enlightenment is never out of reach,
shades of wisdom float past my eyes
as if on a river cruise in search of ports;
a path forward seldom taken clouds the
vision - fall storms without lightning,
pleasing a judgeless jury and a crime
gone missing in a fall haze...
equipped with compasses, the quest
for mindless truth begins - a journey on
not so familiar ground - the bartender
ignoring curfew, our steins fuller than
they were before... endless chattering of
endless kind grace our mature ears,
helping us find our missing captain...
tears stream down glass walls where
tourists rested their heads, trying to
catch a glimpse of the pope's reflection,
and with eyes firmly planted in the
back of my head, I push forward hoping
the day will finally catch up to where
it had left off - just yesterday it was... or
so it is that my mind believes it to be.
