This Excitement Of What Is Not And What Will Be...... Poem by RIC BASTASA

you quit
you are honest enough
to quit
and be on your own
kind

you quit
it does not really matter
we know what we do
and we know where we
are going

we know what we do not
know
we know the place which
we have not mapped out
yet

this is reality
everything is uncertain
no one claims to know
the answers
and no one cares
what those questions are
anyway


you quit
and we move on
you will be left here
and we are moving


to uncharted places
to the unknown
and that is all that we have
this excitement
of what is not
and what will be......
