Elysium

Embarking on this dreamer's vessel to find an Elysium never discovered by Man, and as adventurous as Columbus was: enamored with the passion of discovery, I will find,by error,what other thought was an impossibility; and without that elusive feeling, I'll sail to the imaginary shore of Paradise, to admire the emblazoned sunset... Enacting drama, when thoughts confound, will help keep my sanity constantly afloat... and relying on my empiricism, as many have, is a sure sign of the elements I will confront; gifts of exquisite beauty I'll bring back to elevate the saddened soul of the impatient,distrusting empress: hoping she will show empathy, not bitterness! Wind, pick up your currents and make my sails continuously flap! Elysium, be reachable and embrace my cause... not to let me despair any longer and die like amber, exalt my vibrant spirit to emancipate these doubts and fears; how will an hopeless captain affirm his convictions when his affidavit becomes void and null? Elysium, I rely on your generosity and friendly gesture, to hasten my arrival on your grass-covered soil, and should rain fall, I'll rinse myself in your pure waters! Copyright 2009 by Andrew Crisci
