the winter road

she rides the soft
shoulders of daydreams
inevitably
sliding down to the cold pavement

reality is so concrete

if you’ll pardon the pun
pardon the plain
yet not so plain

there are hidden hills
and twisting turns just
around go look around
go slow
those ice-blue eyes those thoughts that
drift

could hold on fierce and tight
if she could name that crazy-restless road
at last
could sleep or wake

no more middle, no more dwelling
in the gloaming
that hard pavement scuffs her skin
so easy

no question which is stronger
yet when the pavement breaks
it is broken
when her skin has bled it will
heal again

again, again,
scarred but whole
not yet wholly scarred
still
 
tender
soft-shouldered dreamer
this traveler unknown
along the winter road
