CCXLII
Bruegel's Landscape With Fall of Icarus
Afraid to take the unbeaten path,
ashamed to be found at The Old

you can stand on our stagnant, deathless wrath
calmly, for centuries untold

or: make a Way of your own

& maybe even find
Yourself ahead of the next milestone
with all The Rest behind

--Only: Don't stay to scan the footsteps
of as far as you have come:

Behind you in shadows eternity creeps

and Ahead is your only home.
