Further Still

I have travelled far by myself.

Oblivious to the rain that softens the air,
I have climbed high above everything.

I have sat in the solitude of dusk
And watched the smoke that rises from the pipes.
I have seen it curl into obscurity.

I have created many a work of art in my mind,
Inspired by the clearing skies
As they paint themselves into night.
I have caught a glimpse of the silver crescent and star

And further still I travel.
