If Anything
Who gauge a crown with stars at its edge,
and fathom hollows beleaguered trails.
An unmarked course decorates the pledge,
may tether the ring that brinks its ledge,
the faithful choose sky-map to lead sails.
Instruments and gadgets beg a touch,
there's more to be that makes a wonder,
this and that may serve their purpose much,
the dream remains lest they'll be nonesuch,
let strength soar and the weak go under.
No small outcome affects such a trend,
for the passage takes time that will cost,
as novel concerns promptly descend,
who'll be the wiser, a fool ascend,
impulsive predicaments, claims lost.
Star jumpers uses time just because,
the relevance bears no consequence,
... till, time travel--worthy for a pause,
redo's and reviews, for errs, check flaws,
back to Plan A, ... but, ... add the sixth sense.
Unexplored regions challenge like bees,
too soon to choose a risk you will lose,
time's created for necessities,
prompts none to favor to win with ease,
cast a world less one constant amuse.
Harmony soothes what tragedy flits,
the ancient mariner in full spring,
a starry heaven affairs true grits,
ample weighs a voyage chart by wits,
the wellspring flows free -- if anything ...
