The Vehicle

A body walks the earth
Aimlessly
Naive of the things
That it sees
Missing the single element
That separates the beings —
The ability to share with others
The songs it wishes to sing

Mind in matter
Helping the other to grow
Mind using matter
To learn the things it wants to know

Vehicle in motion
Transporting thoughts
Expressing ideas
Of immobile minds,
Immortal souls —
Through companionship and loyalty
Experiments and curiosity
They both shall thrive
To keep the other alive

Now it can travel
The universe
And wonder about the things
That it sees
In contact with the elements
And knowing what they mean
Is a part of the world’s perfect pair
And the world that they share…
