travelogue
"We shall not cease from exploration / And the end of all our exploring / Will be to arrive where we started / And know the place for the first time." - T.S. Eliot (Four Quartets)
travel for experience
an attempt to vary
monotonous existence
to do some thing that others can
envy
your mission accomplished (it is ended)
and disappointingly, you discover that yourself came along
unwittingly packed away in your suitcase
sidled up against underwear and shoes
and all you were really
attempting
was self-escape
during your home-escape
ensues disappointment
because you realize
you are you:
inescapable fact
but somehow fact renewed
