The Road
Where have you made a road to-day?
Against the south or against the north
in this region of the country like a good
pioneer?
Have you traveled the hidden road
to Purgatory out westward from here
or the unseen road to the unknown future
maybe even the undiscovered one to happiness?
How about the road out yonder to reconciliation
which requires courage and concession
along with possibly stepping out of your
comfort box?
Take your pick and take the road
keeping in mind that sometimes
they all connect at some point
