For Travel's Sake

i am my own
car, and i drive it
towards a direction

on smooth wheels
fast and sound
tracks stretching
before my
sharp eyes

i overrun
not people
but my
limitations
i compete
against myself
against
the obstructions of my
intolerance for
failures

i like this journey
towards
an uncertain
destination

it is the excitement
of not knowing

it is travel for
travel's sake
