The Mesh

 

Looking forward

By John Ward

 
What am I looking for?
Where is the future?
How far forward should I look?
Which direction should I stare?
What should I expect?
Should I propel the expectation of new?
Stroke after stroke, circle after circle.
Forward is struggle, struggle is experience, experience is more.
I’ll fill the vessel and transform the understanding.
There is no end to the excitement.
I’ll revel in naivety and another corner turned
I’ll look for patterns, but screw the experience; it leads to stoicism.
I’ll ask the question that confronts the issue.
I’ll find the bend before my next paddle,
And be prepared to shift.
I think I’ll enjoy the moment that leads to the next.
