Which carries me
Throughout the day
Until the amber
Comes again
Beyond the straight
A farther shore
Receding
In the mist
Still, if I land
On farther shores
Though metaphor
They be
I feel my heart
Thrum in my chest
I feel the heat
Within my soul
I feel the beat
Of wordless rhyme
I am complete
Connected time
A single car approaches me
Then whistles by
The last I’ll see
Before sky fades and daylight flies
The specks
On my windshield
Remind me
Revel in this experience
But at the edge
Brief silhouette
As sunlight rages
And resists
It carries on
Through lands unmarked
To where I cannot be
Though straight it drives
‘Cross many miles
It never does arrive
