Think of it This Way - Feb. 26, 2023

aren’t we driven

by our strongest imperative -

need?


and don’t our wants

feel more like the occasional

vacation?


and isn’t silence the station stop

where we can pick up a snack

fill up the car and get directions

to that place called Happiness?


I’ve noticed that way

isn’t straight line easy

neither jet nor train like

but rougher more offroad


and after all that dust

from the turns and slips

the climbs and spinouts

clears


there’s often a surprise

I never would’ve found

on my own
