What a winding, uncertain road we travel.
It's hard to believe we made it past all those sharp turns without losing control.
Glancing up at the course ahead.....
Arrows pointing at each other like accusations.
Which way to go?
They know no more than I.
Climbing only to fall again it seems.
Stumbling around in uncertainty.
Calculating through the whole ride up.....
How far of a drop we can survive.
Approaching a fork in the road ahead
The other way looks so much smoother and clearer.
Have you been tempted to take it?
Or did you follow the clear path only to wonder what you missed?
Our present always haunted by future and past.
Who among us can take a step without first looking to the ground?
Or turn a corner without a backward glance?
Who among us can look ahead with clarity
Or back with complete satisfaction?
