Journey

“Studebaker” – digital & traditional
by David Reinbold

Journey

With Zeno riding shotgun, we’ll never get there;
But forever divide in half the distance yet to go.

No is where I want to be;
Driving but never arriving.

The radio is playing Smetana’s Ma Vlast
And I pass a blue and white Kenworth.

The driver taps the steering wheel
As he navigates the Moldau.

But the highway is as much a river
as musical notes are a homeland.

Besides, he’s never heard of Smetana
And I’m halfway to nowhere.
