Jean Murray Poet Haibun

Heading Home

I'm a teenager in a convent boarder's uniform, wool coat buckled tight.
Brother a college student in town, both heading home for the weekend. Holding tight to his waist, leaving all stuffiness behind as we speed off on his motorbike.

green fields fly by us

   
      we will take the back roads home
              

             rebels with a cause
