From the Book

I Spoke With Strangers

Strangers -
I spoke with strangers
for a message
and mapped
new routes
they shared
odd accounts
uncharted territories
Strangers -
I asked their help
and traveled
on unfamiliar vessels
on vast unknown oceans
to places I absolutely
was required to go and quickly
though the cost might be my sanity
I went willingly.
