“The only difference between a rut and a grave are the dimensions.” Ellen Glasgow
What If
Drifting
along this narrow deja vu,
once again I pass you,
in familiar places
of textured prescription,
ever circling the interment
of this rutted trench,
the padre’s whisper
haunting the way,
as we skate this
tired path,
what if
we stepped out,
out of this grave
and into the brave
unprescribed geometry.

Yes, I wanted something more sunny, but it wouldn’t come, I am feeling that too many are stuck, especially the wealthy who are wedded to the production at all costs model.

It’s so difficult to see what lies ahead – hard to push the sunny. This resonated.

Even I like it, it came against my own desire, I was seeking to write something lighter, but it wouldn’t go away. Thank you so much Tracy.

Life is really not predictable, and yet it is more beautiful than with the limits of a grave.
