Today's Verse: 9 April 2008

I lament
On the way back home
All the way back home
I received your vision
Of a better future
Of maps and charts
Too late I saw
The lines that connect
Near and far
Ease stress
And improve the quality of life
Although some misfits
May bemoan perceived aesthetic defects
(The median of gray, concrete phalli bound by wire?)
How could I but applaud your enthusiasm
Selfless devotion to engineering
Global approach and ambition?
It all comes too late
I'm returning to the past
Where problems don't require resolution
In fact there are no problems
It just is
Was
At the same time
I'm happy here there
Good luck and keep in touch
