A Futile Lesson in Logic

That’s the way things happen logically,

we leave and arrive somewhere.

We leave for an instant, for an hour, for a lifetime,

perhaps we shouldn’t have left, but that’s not the problem,

but the fact that we arrive somewhere, we always arrive somewhere,

we may not arrive on time, we may not arrive where we should,

we may not arrive where we meant

still we arrive somewhere and as long as we arrive somewhere

everything is logical

although logic and happiness are totally different things,

even so we left and arrived somewhere,

we took the wrong way, nonetheless we arrived somewhere,

yet, when we don’t arrive anywhere,

everything becomes illogical. What are we heading for

if we don’t arrive anywhere ?
