Wrong Turn
I’ve dwelled within this weathered shell
For all of time, as I can tell
I’ve often felt, I don’t belong
Unequally yoked, wired wrong
Somewhere along this path of mine
Of many turns, I missed a sign
I took a detour, by mistake
I passed the exit, to be great
My destination has not been reached
Though my route was clearly breached
My wheels still spin and motor purrs
The day it ends, I’m left, unsure
