This damn trail
little more than an animal track
takes me forever higher
amid the sharp rocks and slippery clay
Why did I come
on this foolish venture to nowhere
The top of the mountain
grows no closer to me
Around the bend
a beautiful vista
A cooling breeze
a place to rest
I hate to walk
but love to arrive
at the highest peak
the ultimate goal
