Behold this independent solitary spirit;
un-nested, winging on near ceaseless flight
o'er unchartered and uncertain kinder seas --
leaving the horde clamoring at the shore.
Too solo, always gliding on a quest as mystical
as the limitless sky above, or swells below
that could sooner consume any beloved --
much as the world would devise for any other.
Even so, this wandering heart carries feelings
aloft of romance, love, passion ... pain ...
pondering consequences of swapping aircurrents
for the reality of the waves or a captain's deck.
