On the Road

Neal and Jack
Hope and Crosby
Hajjis and Marching Saints
Don Quixote and Sancho Panza

Paved with indeterminate intent,
Is that Heaven's Golden Road
Or merely a yellow bricked path
To yet another false Oz?

Standing at the crossroad
The party never ends
Trying to flag a ride
The Road goes on forever

The March of the Wooden Soldiers
The Trail of Tears
Oedipus and Laius
The Samaritan and the Levite
