Sonnet #80

Let's all go on a hero's journey: Map it out

in advance, where your mentor will be

Where will you face the inner demon's pout

and whistle? When do you expect all to be

lost? Plan for a scenic location, a vacation

on a mountainside, a long walk up unburdening

all the baggage along the path, placations

symbolically selected, something old, something

new, something borrowed, a sky so blue

Look up into the mirror of the self, that deep,

deep blue, and picture all the universal truths

emanating from all the galaxies so vast that creep

Around the unbelievably empty everything

Upon arrival, tip the waiter, Go to yelp for reviewing
