Find & Seek
Adumbrate the sine qua non
that inundates with newness
the contentment of the shore,
that fosters the fortitude
to acquiesce to the adventure,
but then gladly follow
the trail of fallen confetti
in reverse, back to solitude,
to recommence the seeker's cycle,
for the finder can only be idle
for so long, before the beacon
of the Quest sprinkles its
breadcrumbs afresh, and
beckons him along...

James Aloysius Joyce expressed this pithily in 'Ulysses':
“Think you're escaping and run into yourself. Longest way round is the shortest way home.” ―
