the untraveled

there is a problem with asking questions
that may lead others to believe i am untraveled.

if i take them to a a place that seems so what of it?
who am i to them now that i was not before?
what am i to myself that i risk nothing to be portrayed
as everything?
the untraveled.

he rests on the shoulders of his own perception.
standing with an empty plate outstretched toward an
under-fed mouth.
offering it nothing in return that others may acknowledge
this statue while not knowing what it means.
