What do you think this poem is about?

Two Sides

I went forth this morning on a road
never traveled before, in a world
not yet dipped in Time's waters. I return
in the traffic and the exhaust, scarcely able
to wait until tomorrow.

    Sounds like something out of one of Laurie Lee's books. A lovely poem, Max.

    Each 'adventure' may not be as aesthetic as we'd like upon discovery.
    We choose the familiarity of our comfort zones. 'Two Sides' offers the imagination a wide interpretive field. I like it a lot.
