Bored

Down on Broadway, over on the strip
He was watching the traffic of humans
Walking or biking, a few would run
He had forgotten how he got there
A 48 hour pass, in town with his ship
So many people and the movement
Some think a pass would mean fun
He wasn't moved and didn't care
All the people selling their wares
He was alone in a crowd 
Even on ship with full crew
At sea for months on end
Life would someday be over
He did his time but wondered
What more could there have been
What existed that he never found
What was it that the religious believe
Because he for one
Never found any holy ground
