Toll road

Peace, only in moments
Far down the night road fast
Passing by deep skies behind trickling rain
Black distance, black horizon dark
Warm in memory soon, for now
Cold beside me, cold outside me
My hands prefer lifelong habits
Simple, cheap cards, a rumination coin
To remember when I was there
With her, and her kin
On the highway

I write stuff when something begs to me to write. The goal is to write ten-thousand things before I die. I tend to be morbid, reflective and personal.
