-Finding disapointment at the end of a long journey is worth satisfying curiosity.<br /> <br /> -Going the wrong direction is still going somewhere. Wouldn&#039;t it be worse to go nowhere at all?


Writing a poem is handing
Part of your soul to a stranger,
Letting it go completely,
Dropping it as a tree drops leaves,
And hoping someone will notice
the patterns you made with the veins.
