NaPoWrMo #7: The Dream Becomes Me 365

 The Dream Becomes Me 365

Looking ahead is always

a swivel to that rearview mirror

A two step to the twelve step

I’m not headed there again

There is something new around the bend

It isn’t as clear as where I’ve been

It is what I want more than

What is in my hand

It must be the cure

I am so sure

Pull hard, and I’m outta here!

A shove in the right direction

Detection of the whisper of a tear

That I wipe as I shout, “I’m a commin’!”

Running for the nearest exit

Even if it drops me down

Forty stories below

To infinity and beyond

I am bounding along

Saved by this plan

Because I can, I am

Racing away from what was

To what will become me
