Travel On

They like alligators

Slip into the passing flows

Out from the paths

They follow a rose

As into the sunset

My mind goes 

On to better places

Leave the day behind

Some treasure lost

In the night to find

Back now

To the wanton belly

Of the way –

On the fast pace

Of the black river

Back now 

To the vanishing horizon

Of this event

The curve of the road sinks

Beneath the wheels

My thoughts are left behind

The projected vision

Of red tail lights up ahead –

Locked in a film noir

Of blacks and greys tonight.....

Climbing climbing – pulled

Like a moth in the moonlight

By the magnet of life

The words are gone ..

The pics are gone...

and so am I for now....

Travel on, travel on,

Travel on my friend...
