To the Moon

Earthbound and shackled by

Constant confusion, daily profusion of

Sanctified sacraments,

Fretting the gamut of secular musings,

Seeking a meaningful, practical pose.

Wherefore and what for,

Therefore and much more.

Searching and lurching,

Gasping for air,

Grasping a dare to break free

Of the confines

Defy all the gravity holding me here.

What then to do?

Where then to go?

Do I find Valhalla or Brigadoon?

So many places to fly in the heavens.

     Venus…

          Mars…

               Or just to the moon.
