Traveling to the Stars

Up above, out of reach, beyond the silence 

Lies beauty, majesty, dancing starlight, and

the mirror of ambition

What is my purpose in going on such a journey?

No easy answers or sage advice can prepare

Will the innumerable giant sentinels of heaven’s gate, 

Whom, keep the vigil for craven fools, who boast of their pedigree,

Let me pass, though every cell of my being be singed through, 

Will I fly to great unknowns or be dashed as a contemptuous ingrate 

I do not know, I do not know

Though I say to watchers be, would it be better to drown in the great deep communal darkness of mediocrity, than to  be cast down having had a glimpse of eternity?
