Highway 61 Then And Now

Too many
times
I walked down
that road

Too many 
signs
said “lighten
your load”

Too many 
faces
came out of
the rain

Too many
phrases
I couldn’t
explain

(now)

Too many
voices
attract
and repel

Too many
choices
heaven
or hell

Too many
warnings
in search
of an ear

Too many
mornings
in love
with my fear

Too many
chances
to hide
from the change

Too many
off ramps
 that lead 
— to more pain
