Daily Signet

I am in deep waters,
far from what I know,
long in search of what I cannot know.

I have heard the call. 
(Such foreign waters
with sea creatures
unimagined until now
and such foreign forces at work,
enduring the feeling
that you are in 
over your head,
out of your element,
out of what you can control.)

And though I am unsure
as to the way
and unclear as to the end,
I am resolved. I embark.
And thus, we are all hear
on this call,
Who have heard the call,
unclear as to its end.
(Will it outlive us?
Die on the vine?
Will it attract millions?
Be rediscovered millions of years from now?
It is unclear.)
