For the Tweeners - Oct. 20, 2025

aren’t sidewalks really for

the very young and very old?

 

between those ages, you

tweeners out there

don’t need, shouldn’t need

the hard well-worn path

 

your lives should machete

a unique trail, uncover

a new way, your way

 

there’ll be plenty of time

to return to the safety

of concrete,

 

when you’re satisfied

with what you’ve found

inside yourselves
