Vastness Of The West

Immersed amongst far horizons,
so vast to be as dreams imagine,
surrounded by immeasurability,
captured wholly by close infinity,
a traveller is sucked into vortices
and drawn through endlessnes
down roads that go on forever.
Timelessness his only companion.
Regardless of how long he moves,
he seems to be going nowhere.
Progress indicated by the passing
of immutable roadside objects.
The distant swirling skies growing
in endlessly towering whiteness
upon a quiet blue ether canvas.
Defined by silence and solitude,
he becomes minute and irrelevant
amongst the vastness of The West.
