A Journey to Redefine
Too far have I traveled along this way
Before I have found myself lost in the wood,
My trotting stallion, now tired and irritated,
Slows down and looks for direction –
I must have rode along the wrong path.
Never before have I been so helpless,
I never knew whether there was a right track
Nor did I care much to look for one,
The ride was enjoyable until this impasse
Now I reckon it has cost me and my wood too much.
My stallion will resent any change in course,
It is not harnessed for a different one,
So I have got to dismount and discard it
And redefine my journey if I am to proceed,
Perhaps on foot, along with others in the wood.
