nothing concluded 58

viewed as a long
journey we are all on
dancing to different
tunes at different
times

the cloudy days
the gray ones
they arrive even the most
successful see
the gray days

sunshine cracks
the dawn on days
when it seems
nothing can
go right

on the way around
we create as we go
taking each step
in order to make it
to the next day

though death
may seem to be
an abrupt end
a life not
completely lived

only the beginning
of what we cannot
know our understanding
is not ready to know
what’s on the other side

don’t want this vehicle
to be disposed
of in an underground
parking lot
no one needs

to visit that spot
reach deep within
to find that spot
to visit those gone—
nothing concluded. . .
