High Places


what is it about those high places
i wonder
that make them so fascinating
among other things

those hills, mountains, and peaks
the podiums, pedestals, and thrones

what is it in them
that turn us into moths
irresistibly drawn
to that alluring bright light

perhaps it is that
they make us look up
from our mundane little things

perhaps it is that
they bring heaven to earth
and gods to man

or perhaps it is that
they question the horizons
