Columbus (a poem)

 

 

On your quest for perfection

You dream of the treasures

Of the hidden pleasures

Beyond the seven seas.

 

The wind whispers fortunes to your sails

And soon  you will go away

Remember, the Earth is a sphere

So one day, you may end up here.

Right where you started.

To face me.

Again.

What then?

Who will be the bigger fool?

Me- for waiting for you for so long

You- for being so stubborn, so blind, so wrong.

 

And in the harbour echoes of sniggering time

Passing by, without a care

So you won’t try to make an effort

And seize the moment now.

 

This was your chance to DISCOVER ME.
