I was talking with Moon and watching a movie the other night when this floated into my head and from my pen onto a scrap of paper:

Sentiment In Journey
by Michael Romani

In fellowship we find our company
There in that extended fringe we call family
Thrown back gin helps see to our recovery
It's that remembrance of our fresh discovery

Of all the many things we've forgotten
In all of our adventures misbegotten
Lost up in semi-mystical words on a page
Borne as they are in our great age

Manners form their own society
Concerned for all the others in our propriety
As we find our secret freedoms
And candles light the passage to our kingdom

In mental discomfort, we find our connections
Finding our way out past misdirection
In all of these things so completely literary
We wind up our legendary itinerary

Traveling the near in going oh so far
Seeking our truth in following our star
The best deeds are sealed with a kiss
For without that kiss, God only know what we would miss...
