Stigmata Redemption Jack Kerouac style
On the restless road of existence,
Winding through beatnik midnight dreams,
I met a wanderer with stigmata palms,
Tales carved into hands like nomadic streams.
Under the neon hum of jazz club nights,
His scars sang stories of holy flights,
How the weight of the cross bore heavy and true,
On hearts searching for redemption’s hue.
He’d seen angels in every corner dive,
Playing saxophones, making dead souls revive,
For the sacred and profane were one and the same,
On this mad, mad journey with no name.
In every gas station gospel, every roadside psalm,
He sought the peace, the transcendent calm,
His hands bled not of pain but passion's flame,
Calling to the wild, the outcast, the untamed.
He whispered of a love so vast and profound,
That in every hitchhiker's thumb it could be found,
For the universe pulsed in a beatnik’s heart,
And stigmata redemption was the ultimate art.
In the dharma of the road, the rhythm of the train,
Lay the answers to suffering, joy, and pain,
And as the dawn broke and he vanished from sight,
I knew redemption lived in the endless night.
