Deliverance


"Deliverance"

The Road 
leads us 
down 
cause ways 
in our worst dreams
we never dreamt

once the course set
there is no turning back
detours buy us some time
for a very short while 
the course for us
my dear, already set

hiccups conquered
over, like roadkill bumps
lessons spoken from lips
the motherload mind speaks
offering spoonfuls of sugar 
sincerely, we are driven 
to deliver

(LadyLabyrinth / 2023)
