Analysis of Turn
Miguel A Galindo 1973 (El Paso)
In this never-ending wind
Turns are all the same
No direction to follow
Not even a curve to tame
In everyone I see
There is a little bit of me
Sharing who you are
Keeps the turn flowing free

About this poem
I wrote this poem while at home in San Francisco ca. It just came to me after noticing how we all share in the same experiences and are a lot alike.
