A Collective Thought. A Haiku.



I am wandering
To find a sanctuary
I am wondering

I am wondering
Where to find sanctuary
I am wandering



NB.
At first I thought the title must be `A Jewish Thought´ (i.e. the wandering people) then I thought in more popular terms it should be `A Pilgrim's Thought´ (but that would give it too much of an unbidden religious content) so I considered an even more general term `A People's Thought´ but I decided in the end that the thought would probably go beyond our human limitations and that any life form will, at one point or another, feel this sense of urgency and threat so I chose this title: `A Collective Thought´. The lines speak for themselves.
