Poem: I am a young traveler

I am a young traveler,
seeking for the true meaning of life
I seek for what I don't see,
I find adventure in the distance,
I see before me,
during my travels,
a young man,
sitting and talking to himself,
repeating the words:
"I traveled a far distance,
and have found nothing but pain,
I have seeked for what I could not find
and lost more than what I bargained for.
"
I did not stop,
but pressed on,
I could not stop to give him a drink,
seeing as he was delusional,
talking to himself,
with a rock beside him,
carved by the man I believed.
with writing that said:
"I have traveled for as much as I could,
and I am now tired,
lost,
and depressed,
I need nourishment and a doctor"

Yet I could not stop,
as I was halfway on the other side,
seeing beautiful sights before me,
thinking of the man,
that was there,
talking to trees,
hoping they would talk back,
no answer, I believe.
As I saw,
through the harsh woods,
a crew of doctors,
I talked to them,
told them where the young am was,
we rushed,
only to find,
a note,
that was written,
with a stick,
It read:
"You have traveled as much as you could,
you were lost,
and found someone to help you,
you traveled for a distance,
and found a spirit,
talking to himself,
hoping he could help.
However, he was only,
in your mind."
I looked at the rock next to it,
and saw just dust,
What was I dreaming?
I was a traveler,
taking many paths,
and found,
only a distant memory.

The English Patient- Seinfeld

If you ever have seen the English Patient episode of Seinfeld, not only will you see the late Lloyd Bridges portraying Mandelbalm, but you will see Elaine's hatred for the movie the English Patient. And why should you blame her. I agree. That was one horrible movie. Saw it once on HBO (half of it) and had to switch channels. I know that Ralph Fiens is a good actor and it won best picture. But I though it should not have won best picture at all. There were better films than that to win best picture that year believe me.

In the episode, Elaine sees the movie with her boyfriend who soon dumps because he liked the English Patient and she didn't. Her friends even liked it. She just couldn't deal with it. She'd rather see "Sack Lunch" than that long piece of crap. She soon is forced to see it again because she told her boss she never saw it.
Loved it when she eventually admits how long and boring the movie is and tells her boss that She Hates It!!!!! I am so like her with that agreement. That movie was horrible. If you bloggers like the movie, that's ok, I don't hate your taste in movie, but I don't like that movie at all. Rather Fargo or Jerry McGuire 'cause those were pretty good movies. The English Patient, not one of my favorites. In the words of Elaine Benis: I Hate It! (to movie goers shushing her) Oh go to hell. Caio Bloggers.
