To Arms

There is no reason for this expedition;
It only left because of boredom's call.
It will not lead to any great sedition
Or make a new dictator quake - or fall.
There is no greater consequence herein
Than that we will, perhaps, feel less ennui.
And so the best adventures oft begin,
After-effects of inactivity.
Where will we go? What will we do? Who knows?
The hours would tick off if we stayed home,
But doing this is something, and it shows
Perhaps a willingness in us to roam.
So let the time go by, and let's do this;
It's not like there is anything we'll miss.
