Going to the Edge of the World -- a Flash Poem

The Temple by Tomasz Zaczeniuk

The edge of civilization
beckons me there I want to go
Like roller skating through a rink
full of Saturday night skaters  

Challenges I like give me thrills 
stimulates adrenaline flow
Faraway places are for me
Bid the monks, priests, and nuns goodbye 
 
The edge of the Earth calls, danger
and new adventure beckons me

    This end of the world, I wonder what's beyond? even more adventures?
    I like the positive outlook in the end.

    This was a much lighter take on the prompt than mine and I love it!
