The Road
I tread on an eternal road,
craggy and unsure
pedals pressed up
against weary soles,
and limbs shagged out,
yet hell-bent
steering indolent levers
if only to keep on,
trampling along concrete pavements
and earthen avenues
hoping for a cordial destination.
I tread on an eternal road,
the road called LIFE.
