The Last Trip
written by: Thaddeus Hutyra
@teddy9999
He imagined his last trip
Will be on the board of a plane
Or perhaps even in a rocket.
Fantasies were rooted
Firmly within him
He was though so young!
If less fortunate
Then perhaps in a car
Or at least in a golden carriage.
He was already more thoughtful
Less expecting from life
The harsh reality
Pierced deep
Through his fantasies.
To his surprise
No vehicle, nothing at all
Awaited him
For his last trip.
Well, he was already old man
The life was never really
Fortunate enough to him
But this?
No, he did not expect it.
He just walked
Into that hazy white spot
And finally disappeared
Within it.
Thaddeus Hutyra (known also as Tadeusz Hutyra) was born in Poland where he attended schools and begun to study at the prestigious Jagiellonian University of Cracow. Shortly before the emergency state announced by the communist regime on 13th of December 1981 he left Poland in search of a better life abroad. Primarily he intended to emigrate to the United States of America, the goal he was never fortunate to fulfill. Instead he found himself in New Zealand where he lived 5 years and afterwards he had a brief period of travelling across some Asian and European countries, he lived for a while in China and Hong Kong before finally settling down in Belgium. He is active on Facebook and in other social media. He published a number of books both in English and Polish.
