I'm just starting out
there is so much which I haven't seen
or done
so much life I haven't tasted
and more that I never will
but it's good
for the first time
I have the reins
and I removed them
and my horse became wild
bucking me off
but I clutch
arms around its thick neck
and soon it forgets about me
It takes me to strange places
unseen by a civilized eye
beautiful temples
which steal the breath
from within your lungs
emerald forests which go on for miles
canyons carved out
by ancient warriors of old
abandoned alien metropolises
and the image of God
the universe is gigantic
but it's only getting bigger
I may just be starting out
but I am so excited
for what's to come
