Destination

                                                                  

 

 

Never, upon waking, daily,

Can you determine, with precise clarity,

In what direction your destination lies

Or, as the crow flies,

Just what your E.T.A. might be.

 

For that matter, your fate, hour to hour,

Is up for providential grabs,

Dependent on prevailing winds

At the beck of shifting whims 

Conspiring, from the west, to do you in.

 

Indeed, so intense, minute to minute,

Is your attempt to make sense of your vector

That you often forget your mission:

To get from one side of twilight to the other,

Before night erases your flight.
