Destinations.

empty roads filled with

the empty gazes of

hollowed out eyes,

framed by the bags and

the black circles

burrowed deep into their skins.

"Where

are we

going?"

you ask the chillness of the night,

the stillness of the bright,

blue cars rushing past--

dazed,

you swim in this world as

a goldfish with no memory and

no vision

of what's to come.

"Where,

oh,

where

are we going?"

you ask,

feet out the window as

the lustful wind runs its chilly fingers

through your hair.

"Nowhere."

he answers,

hands gripping the steering wheel,

knowing someday you shall float off,

up,

up,

and away

to a distant land

and a distant time--

we're on a road to

nowhere.
