BEFORE THE ROAD

Folder: 
JOURNAL#30

before the road

a thousand ponders will falter

mid thought

while jungles of jumbled poetry

weave their ivy like way

onto the prairie of the page

and self worth

in one last effort for redemption

will be called into question

amid the lyrical shedding

thin skinned am I?

nay.......

for I sit to write now

always the unmasked soul

undefendable

even to the bitter imperfection

of the savaged self...........
