the mid of the road

the continuation of the mid

 

How does the song go?

One that bears the many transgressions of man

That tells of being redeemed and brought to feast on righteousness

One that lacks certain protests made by men

 

Resolutely..

 

I'm not wounded, I'm not forgotten

I'm not the child left out in the cold

I wasn’t forsaken to the dust of the world

I was just only the one drowned in the lives of too many opinions

 

Not those of the voice shifting congregation

But those of myself

The misguided roads of unforeseeable turns

What of it

 

Yet..

 

Upon being near blinded

 

The certainty of convergence narrows drastically

 

Suddenly only a few of these highways seem navigable

To one standard

 

Of the few left rational..

 

One stands out

Not completely banishing the others from use

But certainly looking to be the better of the lot

Not because of the potential ease, but the conviction that has drawn my eyes towards it

 

Its two lanes are not opened to high speeds, rather, a much slower, careful tempo of motion

Although it appears to be a uniform highway, with exits and warning markers

Obviously, the left lane is to the left of the right lane.

And the right lane is to the left of the exits bearing new and different highways.

 

Pretty basic eh..

 

Seemingly easy lanes to travel, one closer than the other to the exits, and to another set of lanes

Quite the effortless commute

Expecting no potholes or traffic

And granting I know which exit to take

 

It would be..

 

Except, my vehicle is not exactly in working condition

It seems that over time it has been brought to less than highway worthy order

And even if it were in said worthy working order

I lack the knowledge of certain functions of the car itself.

 

Ah well..

 

As is life

Better hop to it.
