you've haven't seen
the pyramids, at least in
person, but you have
a good idea of what they look like.
or the grand canyon,
the Eiffel tower,
or the great wall of china.
does this bother you,
do you feel slighted, or
uncultured because of this,
no. you don't.
maybe one day, you'll stand
in Yellowstone and stare
at old faithful
spurting hot water
into the air,
and maybe you won't.
but if you do get around to
seeing these sites,
you'll keep it to yourself.
for now you like the path
behind your house,
the one that goes around
the lake for miles and miles
without a soul around.
