2015 Poetry Post 1: Even Now


Even now,
with folders full
of half-finished tales
waiting for clear mind
and clear schedule
not clear sky,

even now,
when long-awaited
ships have sailed
to cheers,
yet still wearying
on our Sisyphean band,

even now,
worlds uncounted
ruddy and pale
remind me why
I came
and why I stay.

Thank you! Are you sure you're not biased? ;)

Subtle, and I like the oblique reference to the subject.
