A Galton Board
What's Going On invites us to write about 'The Journey'.
I was in a reflective mood.
Serendipity
As you ramble on through life, Brother, whatever be your goal,
Keep your eye upon the doughnut, and not upon the hole.
Is it a journey
If you have no idea
Where you are going?
Is a destination,
A place to aim for—
Is it mandatory?
Must you have one
For it to qualify
As a true journey?
What if you step out
With no end in mind?
Is it still a journey?
Yes, certainly, university
Was a stop-off, a way station,
But beyond that—
A thousand possibilities
In the Galton Board
Of life.
What, I wonder,
Is the collective noun,
For journeys not taken?
