Understanding the Crossroad

I stare at the blues and oranges of the world refusing to be pressured there is such beauty in everyday things even the rail road track signs how many people have gone past this site without seeing any of it? how many people have cried tears here? can they be scooped up and reused or are they forever glued to this crossroad? a car honks impatience wants me out of the way I am not ready the time is now and I am here for a reason. I sit firmly, waiting for a sign.

I despise impatience. If there's one thing the military taught me, it was to be patience...learn to wait. When someone honks impatiently, I am moved to wait through the next light. One of these days, I suppose someone will come up to the window and shoot me! Hmmm...is it worth it?
