look no further

lean in they say and never stop
the path well worn and so inclined
to take us to the stars
in time
so they'd have us believe

exhausted at the end of day
with crest attained and goal in sight
we take deserved our rest
at night
proud of what we've achieved

daybreak reveals a different view
the path once more worn and upswept
a change profound wrought while
we slept
a massive excavator's deed

curious we trudge uphill
eternal climb resumed today
while vorticose thoughts spin
away
dirt 'neath our fingernails reveals
our dreams
