A tunnel gives no lost path

by Michael Cannon on November 9, 2009 in Poetry

A tunnel gives no lost path.
Only an opportunity
to proceed
without distraction
of many choices.
Only forward or back.
Into light or dark.
No left or right.
Find your way
through the bottleneck
to chance upon more
by embracing
the unknown.
Or tremble in fear,
never to give
another question
to what could
become you.

Smile for the sake of happiness and confusion.
There’s no weakness in crying, it’s the self pity that harms.
Strive for more than you limit, welcome the results to [...]

Time to wake
Time to go

If we can
If there’s a chance
Of starting a family
