Sister Hazy

And how dare you not remember?
And how dare you walk away?

And I wanted you so much
Just like I do right now
I wanted us to be the one
The poets write their books about

I wanted it to last
I wanted to grow old
But life got in the way


What's a biker to do, but roll with it

  1. Life, like a poem,
    Or a song
    Goes where it will go,
    Pulling
    Or pushing you along.

    Rolling past the castles
    And the signs
    That looked, when you were eight,
    Like a distant finish line.

    But time and undistance
    Show clearly now
    The fixes and the damage
    Repointing you somehow

    To a scary path,
    Steep and rocky.
    Cuddled in fog.
    Take my rope.
    Belay on.
    Climb.
