Winds of Fate

Push me against my back, hit in my face, like any wind you’re elemental and erratic. Give me a licking or unhurriedly caress, play hide-and-seek – a child in father’s jacket. Not telling me what winds await ahead – dead calm, strong gale, dry hot or boreas. As the entire world the only truth as old – last breeze of mine shall fan my deadly face.
