It matters not

such clutches

as that of fame

verses obscurity

for it is the notion of flight

that chooses its form

spirit can not be angled for

depth is a journey

best served to the dimmest child

why fear understands its roll

and plays it so very well

without any real direction

for it is decidedly unneeded

while instinct barters with each

appropriate circumstance

for a more generous time share

only in the present do the shallow

ones thrive

only just this evening I remembered

that tomorrow is the best day of them all

for it is the day that nobody has quite yet touched

and that makes its outline all the more sweeter

to be sought.
