Just Go

Just Go.

Not tomorrow or next week.
Now.

Put a few things in a bag and
walk out your door.

Rich or poor,
Turn left, turn right,
doesn’t matter
it’s the traveling that matters.

You don’t need anyone’s permission.
You don’t need to ask or
wait for the right moment.
Just go.

There are too many pianos
falling from the sky,
too many microbes with axes
ready to cut you down with
one solid swack,
too few breaths left to suck on …
Don’t press your luck.

Life, delicate life
sings a soft song
from her cage.

Listen.
Let her out.
Let that song bird in you
fly free.

Don’t let yourself be
a statistic
a should have
a dream deferred.
Don’t let gravity win.
Don’t let your life become
but mental musings of
what could have been.

Get out there.
Be part of the mix.
Go see for yourself with
your own eyes and ears
what the beauty
of this world offers up
for free.

You don’t need a fat wallet.
You don’t need a full tank of gas.
You don’t need 3 sweaters or
an American Express card.
Just go.

Travel light and let
the breeze blow
through your open mind.
See others as yourself
and melt into an energy
that you, me, he, she, they, we
are.

Go.
Now.
Get on the bus
walk out the door
move and mean
and
just keep going.

It’s that simple.

Just go.
