striving onward…
cascading
meandering rivers
flowing
toward
destination
drunken promises—
painful
hangovers—
political
rain checks
lingering
dreams—
unforgotten nightmares
teasing hope
every u-turn
is not necessarily
a change
in destination
meander if we will
but
must keep purpose
bewildered bleeding
blind justice
holds her waning breath:
a
tortuous
journey
flows
towards
destination
