Odyssey




I long for an A-Z of darkness
Reason can’t sense;
Tales not found in brochures;
A land without memory,
Where real shadows meet.


Why wait
In this half-world,

Sifting caution for answers,

Flinging daydreams into a skip?



Let’s jet off to nowhere:
Tour nonsense; try on the hats;
Live as we mean to die, unknowing;
In some resort, where madmen pose as waiters.
Dream the impossible,


And wake up to breakfast,

Knowing love is absurd.
