The Age Of Exploration (a.k.a. Without a Compass)
*
In my dreams, I glimpse Marco Polo's flight,
Columbus, and Magellan, in the night,
Above them, the Little Dipper glows,
Moonlit worlds where their spirits repose.
On the deck, they sip the wine's sweet song,
Listening to the sea, where they belong,
Lost in the horizon's endless dance,
Yearning for the dawn, their last chance.
Are they on the right course, the foamy ride,
Or just seeking remorse, lost far and wide?
Am I with their brave ranks, Old World's shore,
Or lost in the web the internet bore?
*
A gleam in the sky, a seagull's graceful flight,
Nec Plus Ultra, seeking the ultimate light.
*
The sailors vanished, the sea's image gone,
I fear I've strayed, destiny overdrawn,
Shipwrecked on rocks, fate's path unclear,
Lost without a compass, drowning in fear.
Marooned on sharp rocks, without a guide,
Gazing at the sky's steep, gray slide,
Seeking a rift in time, a way to flee,
Aching for the currents to set me free.
Morning unveils a brand new day,
Dreams fleetingly pass, then fade away,
Suddenly, I see, lost in the stream,
Trapped in infinity's endless dream.
Have we sailed to the New World brave,
Or through the internet's halls, we rave?
Me and you, lost in digital sprawl,
Wandering, answering the internet's call.
*
A gleam in the sky, a seagull's graceful flight,
Nec Plus Ultra, seeking the ultimate light.
*
From a distant land, I roam, unknown,
No memories, no garments, all alone,
Dragging a tattered kite, dreams in flight,
Through wakeful halls, lost in the night.
*
Buzzing surrounds, a world anew,
In this modern era, designed askew,
Free from flaws, in perfection's sight,
A world devoid of joy and plight.
No humor, laughter, or tears remain,
Empty days, devoid of loss or gain,
Charisma and rainbows have bid adieu,
Leaving behind a barren view.
Thus, I dream the ancient dream once more,
Under the cerulean sky I soar,
With a ship sailing through the indigo's might,
Guided by the stars, seeking endless light.
