Chasing Immortality
old goat's on the mountain trail
banishing banality
up and down, o'er hill and dale
cardiovascular brutality
dodging bumps and grinding minds
punishing morality
smashing memories with each step
reinventing his reality
washing all his sins away
forgiving infidelity
on the peak or in the valley
poaching spirituality
arriving at a time and place
with figurative finality
old goat's on the homeward leg
chasing immortality
