 A Prose Poem by Pendragon  27 Dec 2001
 
 
May I have a second helping of ambition?  Could you pass the salt, oh, and
the optimism please? Woolgathering has tired me, yet the wine of aspiration is
providential.  Feeding on Braincandy has yet to gratify my famished psyche. 
Taking my place at the head of this tabular array of thought and circumstance,
engaging the citizenry, and milking the cow for all it's worth.  A road less
travelled, yet look how far I've come.  Consuming every moment as a measure
of esteem, devouring diversity, dogma, doctrines and Dharma as if it were
samosas for the soul.  Jet streams and jasmine tea, I raise my goblet to
honour the summits, I dine on Babelfish to appease the dwellers of Marianas.
  Roasted chesnuts and the sweet surrender to inevitable growth far reaching
yet stationary.  Fruitful savorings of ancient culture over Cognac with John
Barleycorn. I  harvest the chaffy grains of reason and put them in my pipe
dream for a good smoke.  The jaded nebulous of my vision quest seeks 
newborn destinations from the sweet hereafter.  Climbing Llasa, sailing the
Nile, riding Patagonia, walking to Mecca, dogsledding back to the Great
White North...My body wracked with the pain of  in-situ, my spirit awaits
the tidings of a new lodestar.  Economy class on this astralplane, yet my
thirst is quenched on tarmac time.  Inside my cauldron, I concoct a recipe
for my Nirvana.  Reap the whirlwind, yes I do, raven the pursuit, bask in
the sentience and drink the wine from an orchard of knowledge.
