The Hamlet Project

Tell us the instructions
Give us the list of commands
The steps we need to follow.
It would be so much eaiser
Than this wandering path of life.
We hack our way through the weeds
Foot by foot
Unable to see farther than directly in front.
We long for someone to paint a trailblaze for us
To signal where to go and what to do.
We feel like we will never arrive anywhere
But of course
There we are
Somewhere
Doing something.
