Journey With A New Friend
Journey With A New Friend
Each new friend speaks a new language.
Unique histories to share.
So much to say, it’s a traffic stall.
Rare books of knowledge.
Scriptures delineating a process.
Each new friend speaks a new language.
Shared representations?
A journey that is just introduced?
Unique histories to share.
Wilde beast bumping heads
on a prehistoric plain.
So much to say, it’s a traffic stall.

sailing island-ward
tireless monsters await
where the wild things are
all the eggs have hatched
quaking and waddling road-ward
make way for duckling
man with yellow hat
curious monkey named George
unlimited fun
what words can you read
child with upside down book
living life forward

end of world
planned pre-extinction
puzzled driver won’t return
no more ginger-filled
usual morning cup
postponed indefinitely
tears burned
evening light
white-fronted entryways
pleasure
slowly spilling
down ragging river
stretched pathway
leads to invariable demise
