‘Road’

A sample from Book 1

 Road
  
 two roads
frost wrote
 God† also spoke
  
 which to turn
which way to go
 to live
to burn
  
 one can soak
hearts broke
 heavy crime's coat
  
 one can glow
inspired by poe
 or some other creative bloke
  
 ending in an urn
nothing to flow 
 walk on dirt's germ
 run amongst green fern
  
 which road
take note
 careful
orchestrated vote
  
 pick up...learn
seeds to sow
 whatever d.n.a. sperm
 rich, broke
no invisible worm
  
 His† only concern
each row you hoe
 never
give into no
 follow
your wind's blow
 without
stepping
on another's toe
 given fruit
you'll quickly earn

(November 17, 2013)—[‘Road’ was written in 2010.] We all travel different paths. Sometimes we sway off the right path and get hurt.

I was watching Tyler Perry today and he talked about the people who are just seasons and the people who are forever. He said that sometimes we get mixed up and make forever with someone who was just supposed to be a season. I guess that’s what happened to me.

A lot of us just get mixed up. We struggle. We go through our darkness. That seems to be when God steps in and says: No, my child, let me give you a hand.We get so used to the season that when He does help us get back to where we are supposed to be going that, at times, the pain is unbearable. We just have to have faith that He knows what He’s doing. I don’t know how, but I’m here in this apartment, with a vehicle and a job.

Rent is due in a couple weeks and I haven’t started the job yet but I think He’s testing me again. Patience and faith, Karen. It’s hard but this road is where I belong. Love the skin you’re in and have faith in Him.
