Directions For Destiny's Heartland

Decided to repost....hope you don't mind.

Westerly flows on

a northbound

express..

Trembling wasteland

in the dreams of

her dress...

 

Southerly tides

in East Michigan’s

winter...

cascading skies

under a buried

splinter...

 

Destiny’s heartland

in the middle of

nowhere...

condoms and fish gear

on a diet of

Lite Beer...

Nice! I love Marilyn... and this is a fresh take of an escape to the Heartland.
