The Heart and The Mind
were in violent debate
on which ancient dogma
or modern new-age philosophy
or combination thereof
was the right map to use
to get out of this broken down
City of Suffering
when The Driver said
"enough is enough,
let's just go.
I'm driving
so shut the fuck up!"
So off they went
confident
for the moment, at least
on the road chosen
as they looked out the window in silence
at the scattered bits of wreckage
along darkened streets of memory
and tried to focus on the horizon
and what lay ahead
while no one dared look
in the rear view mirror.
