I would like to straighten my encounters with the world
uncrease and detangle the twisted lines that have come to be
the only way
through this short long life we’ve chance for change
to take the off ramp
begin the real journey
unchartered unmapped this territory is pure
though others have come before their footprints guide no form left
to mould the print you implant
exit if you choose
this is your option as well
choosing
but know the cost in an unexplored terrain
is to live continuously
in fear of the unknown
in reality
that exit ramp is meant to lead us to a place we’ve never been
yet always been
meant to grasp
untangle the ties that bind your skill your talent your fist and fingers
to the world that asks us to not undo
that knot
