Fabled quests

Like Don Quixote
of famed fabled
and infamous quest
- jousting at his windmills,
so too do I
quest after
a famed and,
when absent,
infamous fable:
... sleep

Alone.

My capsule

Confined to it
my room becomes
my capsule
- my spacecraft
through
whatever is left
of this journey of life
dependent on reports
from the distant realm
outside my
closed curtain ..
is it raining now?
Has it rained today?
Are the trees still there
and also alive?
