♫ 17/320 —




After silent deliberations amongst ourselves we considered the proposition of the American Goldfinch and proposed the following: "We would be glad to help you traverse the path from here to there. However, there are a great, many possible destinations simply 'west,' of here. Could you be a bit more specific?"

To which the brightly colored bird replied, while pacing about in a figure eight pattern atop the diamond table: "Forgive me. You may find this the oddest paradox to ever be placed before you—certainly by one such as myself—however, I cannot see the complete picture of the 'there," of which I have mentioned. I only know that where I must get to is, a place ... called ... uh ..."

"Of course!" Our thoughts interrupted the birds attempt at recollection with a definitive answer: "America!"

"Yes! America, that is where I must go!" replied the bird, obviously distracted by its own enthusiasm in the process.
