Did you ever think
Of where we were going
Boats know where they are sailing,
Fish know where they are swimming,
Birds know where they are flying
Yet we flounder in the water
But do not sink.
We wear traveling clothes
But do not travel
We write letters
But do not mail them
We buy tickets
On all departing planes
But stay in the airport.
You and I are
The most cowardly travelers ever.
