Dusk Roads Dawn

The long and winding roads 
Are the roads less taken
The roads of dread and trepidation 
Of emasculation that forge creation 
Of character paths of self
That can not navigate the crossroads 
Because the signs 
Don't illuminate the bends
Of wrath and danger
Show me the road
Open ended
With a roadside bar
And Motel as friend 
A Hitchhikes guide
Along with god beside
And will gladly ride off into the sunset
Of a darkened tunnel 
And pay the toll at the end
Whatever that may be
Rather this
Than the road to hell
From dusk till dawn
