I’ve checked the flights from here to there,
And there to here, of course (of course!)
I’m sighing, and my Soul’s laid bare.
Though I should bear so great a care,
This drive comes from a Foreign Source;
I’ve checked the flights from here to there.
We talk – then find we both just stare;
No need to code our words in Morse.
I’m sighing, and my Soul’s laid bare.
As I’m laid bare, I’m light as air;
Not needing to be pulled by horse.
I’ve checked the flights from here to there.
So Foreign, yes, but also Fair;
My deepest Knowings reinforce –
I’m sighing, and my Soul’s laid bare.
‘Tis foolish, no? So unaware?
Still – yielding to a greater Force –
I’ve checked the flights from here to there;
I’m sighing, and my Soul’s laid bare.
