alternative avenues

the tempest

you fill
and rebuild
i
reclaim
my domain

 

distressing
an undressing
revealing layers
not treasures
that had been buried

sand castles
washed away
the fearless & brave
forge into the waves
wishing

crossroads ahead

 

signals flashing
warning signs alight
choosing security of things past
choosing change
stepping across the track
onto an unknown path

 

put anxiety & angst
on the outbound train

 

make way
skepticism has no place
lay new track
