Disputation
It doesn't matter how long
I have been on this ship,
it doesn't matter how long
I have been on this plane,
nor does it matter the time I spend on this road,
looking for solidarity,
It is just a journey about to be concluded,
not a destination.
All that really matters is
how close I am to the shore,
how near the airstrip depot is,
how close my home at the end of the road is,
what I care about,
is how deep the water is
before I make a big leap into it,
how willing you are to help me reach my goals,
how opportunistic you are,
that our friendship will go on forever,
how forgiving you are
even after this wrongs and prejudices presented to you,
that is all I need to know.
