You're an adventurer

You sail across the oceans

You climb the Himalayas

Seeking truth and beauty as a natural state



You're a queen reborn

Worshipped from above afar

Some see you as an elixir

An elemental natural seeking perfect grace



In a catacomb

Or cave of endless drawings

Prehistoric or religious

Your accomplishments prodigious

Seeking out the perfect tone



Your language so clear

Your voice perfectly turning

As in the city I sit yearning

Blowing rings of smoke from thin cigars

Or driving fast in foreign cars

To capture your remains



You're an adventurer

A turban wet wrapped round your head

On the mountainside they predict your death

Oh how you fooled them all



But subjects are a poor excuse

When what you really want's a muse

An inspirating knowledge of what comes before



Speeds of light

The momentary flicker of a candle in its wicker basket

Smoking wax - Facts!

Did you find that superior knowledge that eluded you in college

Did you find that super vortex that could cause your cerebral cortex

to lose its grip



You're an adventurer

You were out looking for meaning

While the rest of us were steaming in an inspirating urban pit

An adventurer

You enter as I'm dreaming

I wish I'd never wake up

Differentiating scheming from my one true love



You're an adventurer

You love the angles and the cherries

The height and width of levies

The natural bridge and tunnels of the human race



You're an adventurer

Nothing seem to scare you and if it does it won't dissuade you

You just will not think about it

You dismiss it and defocus

You redefine the locus of your time in
