A Land Uncharted
Presently, I find myself alone,
Alone on this distant island of ambiguity
Solitary in thought, and motives unknown
Perceiving what is visible with acquired acuity
Is this realm of new discoveries truly authentic?
Lest my eyes be deceived, ‘tis some curious reality
To witness the submersion of creatures which are lentic
And the flight of the birds in tune with commonality
How shall I proceed on this land uncharted?
Surely, with great passion unrelenting
And to my loved ones I bid adieu, from whom I have departed
Farewell to the common world, and to those so forgiving
Pardon my absence of perpetual elation,
As I welcome the day with a much pleasant sensation
