travels take planning

travels take planning
step by step and no sidestepping
while traveling within the mind
roads materialize
destinations quiver in overheated sun
mirages appear and oases quench
the thirst of the thinker out of body

the will of another breaks the spell
obstruction that interferes
yet my mind has many detours
when the urging of others
makes the ends of threads longer 
winding through avoidance
at every compass point 

direction that the good Lord lends me
no sense resisting
break the barrier that leads astray
and go with the woman i love 
in the dark of the night
with a soft place 
to rest along the way
