Cataract

As the lonely cars disappear into the whispering fog

I am left alone with my thoughts

 

I cascade over indecision like a cataract

Listening to a chorus on the rocks

 

Sporadic, mindful of the jealous skeleton trees

Who inch toward my path of destruction

Wishing for a taste of fulfillment

 

Undaunted, I forge ahead

Rushing, gushing, crashing

Breaking my form to continue the journey

Arguing, editing, eroding

 

Finally deciding what path to take,

I mellow out and drift into

Calm waters
