Hackpoems

Title: Sherpa \| Submitted by: dswain \| Written by: Doug Swain \| Style: None

A sherpa gripped by unease Lost his people and still carries their load The thru-hiker traveling alone On his way but with no hands but his own Don't forget the hopeless hobo SOBO with nothin' - nothin' left but to roam All of them so close, all of them so desperate Desperate to see the end With no person close by In heart or in form It's so hard, so very hard To keep seeing the reasons why But there is one, if only one The studious beginner with no teacher, No teacher left to follow They never forget what they're told What they're taught, and remember what to hold Enjoy the walk and go forth They're remember to always look forward Until the end
