the growth of rain
heaven on its knees, drop by drop
sprinkling like sweat

pouring out the macadam in my scars—
following floods race my tears' deja vu....

No Services This Exit Shhhh Contest
Trailers sprout from desert floor    
Tombstones marking the graves of my aspirations.
Tumbleweeds snag remnants of dreams
And blow across macadam prairie.

A highway carries hope far past this place
Of broken dreams and suffocating despair,
But me the mountains trap; they surround me,
And I'll not see home again....

Grind out the miles, suffer the sweat.

The anguish broken to bits again.
My ears pop with the inspiration of all ages.
My thighs approve though my calves complain.
For a long instance my psyche melds with my physique
And I am one....
