Crossroads Ii

(Where Decisions are made)

               Oh! Give one a day
           when to climb and wander
             within a righteous mind,
             tend to a troubled world
               that makes complete
                a celestial recourse.
An earth with all the nostalgia one can muster,
reproduced from out of the holy book, coerced daily
like some perpetual habit served up as vintage wine.
                 To be reconciled 
              With one’s inner self, 
                the body here now
                 at four lanes end
                from another time,
                   reliving every 
                   monochrome
                 imprint, brought 
                 to a life that dwells 
                 on repetition, yet
                   reprehensively
                 lessons unheeded.
