Sans Omnia

I boarded a craft
as a solitary passenger
with a one-way ticket

Millions of light years away
yet a parallel shortcut—
landed on a universe
with no return

Sans Omnia—
read the entrance sign
I wasn’t sure if this was
a welcome gesture or
a name of the place

The place seemed
deserted and desolate
with no mortal around
and no check-in needed

If I got trapped
in my dreamy utopia—
is this in fact a trap or
should I call it my paradise

Sans Omnia—
destiny of a
trapped freedom
