Vagabond Dreams

I wish that I could wander,
A little further from my course.
And I don't mean traveling...
A tad bit south or a tad bit north.

It would be cool if I could travel...
To and fro heaven and to and fro hell.
I don't have much to bring,
And they won't mind my smell.

I'd get to meet really cool folk,
Like angels and some demons.
It would be quite different,
Than the usual carpenters and seamen.

So my bags are packed and I'm ready to go,
Will it be a sea of flames or a sky of calming snow?
