Warped Drive

If Captain Kirk is auctioning unused hotel rooms      
What can the future hold for me?      
Twenty-eight years of grind, retirement looms
Five more years to reach the golden key.      
Children have finished college, starting to bloom.     
Mortgage payments continue, owing without owning.
Working for the check without purpose, continue groaning.      
Melancholy, prolong, repetitive, unclear....      
Never piloted a star ship exploring new worlds  
My life, the final frontier...
