The Map behind My Desk

The Map behind My Desk

Push-pins plaster the map
Behind my desk. Pinpointed
places, dream-travels. Places
to carry me away from today.

Flaming Gorge
The Red Sea
Old Faithful,
The Great Wall
The Great Barrier Reef
The Lesser Antilles
The Smithsonian Institute
Tutankhamen's tomb
Custer's Battlefield
The Las Vegas Strip
The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier

Anyplace but where I am.
