ASPIRATION
Erle Frayne Argonza y Delago
O! Aspiration!
You majestic road
To where all are brought
To fate’s myriad conclusions,
You are beheld
As a plane in Pythagoras’ universe
Contained in Euclid’s space
A foot away to grasp in an instance.
Yet how come that you,
In each one’ pathway
Seem millions of miles away,
Far beyond anyone’s reach?
O! Aspiration!
Please don’t appear as any
Unconquerable chimera
To willful beings
To the willful.
[Writ. 26 May 1988, Proj.8, Quezon City, M.Manila.]
