sometimes late at night
when the words don’t come to paper
and my mind drifts too far from the reading
I entertain myself by exploring
a past that could have been
if I made other choices along the way
to where I am today
no good can come from this
but it does reaffirm the present
since whatever I could have done
or might have been
would not have allowed me to know
some of the people whose lives
intersected with mine
and having those people, those memories
still alive in my heart
was worth whatever price I paid
to get here
staring somewhat resolutely
toward the next decade
of what is this life

An hour, a day, a year, a decade, a life…we’re all bustin’ a bronco and skating the river. Some of us write to help us understand what the dream means.
And sometimes we write so we don’t forget.
Yes! Good point.
Powerful…
