Replying to a comment on:

Go On a Business Trip (Free verse) by abecedarian

Brazil, France, Germany, Japan Spent several days each place To feel each in turn to feel the others No vacation I was on a business trip Auf Geschäftsreise That what business may lead To know thyself To know the rest Brings stronger allies New markets to explore A vision of the future And you within it Forget vacation A broken promise in waiting Go on a business trip instead And you will come back New

Hmmm. I think the pressed shirt imagery is enabling a more literal read than I intended.

'To what business may lead to know thyself,
go on a business trip'.

This poem is meant as the aquisition/appropriation of a tidy concept with the subsequent fragmentation and repackaging into a marketable value added product.
