Circumnavigation Poems | Examples


No uncertain terms -Simply confounding-

Harsh asymmetrical contour following dislocated noncontextual departure.
Roaming, haphazardly choreographed with precise misaligned determination.
Mindfully staggering indistinguishable purpose, consistently in linear circumnavigation.
A matter of process, a state of perpetual traversal, saves from permanence.
The ad infinitum of specificity is quantum, the superposition allowing consistent continuity while indelibly transposing by observance. 
Redundant to its operation, yet necessary in its function. 
Leaving spaces unfiled by way of impetus, whilst evidently consiquential. 
Paradoxically self referential, pertinently inescapable ever presence.

Christopher Columbus
headed east, but instead
went west they said.

His nautical goal was 
circumnavigation,
but North America
stomped that dream dead.



Hickory Dickory
Marion Morrison
crafted a cowboy name
to fan his flame.

His new handle, John Wayne
instantaneously
launched him as a star of
western film fame.

Golden Hind

Arrr!   There she sails
the Golden Hind
full of riches
sublime...

from coast to coast she goes for gold
sailing high
sailing low
undercover
and on she goes-

circumnavigation of our globe between 1577 and 1580
he set sail on a very good day
Captain Drake
went looking for treasure he could pirate away

and then alas
he was knighted by the queen
he seemed to be living
some kind of amazing dream
and where formerly the ship was called the Pelican
she now was the Golden Hind
a force to be reckoned with
and she went sailing down the annals of time
