Changing Lanes, Changing Minds...



Equally Travelled Paths...

A fork in the lane
A dilemma in mind
Left or right
Where is the flight..?


After every turn 
Is standing someone
Like a sphinx 
With a wand to jinx..


Playful yet adamant,
Barbarous yet urbane,
Capricious yet stable,
Ethereal yet earthly...


Waiting patiently
A savage look on the face
Challenging my move
For the next race...


Lane leading to the right
Has intermittent light
Flowing through the lacuna
In the canopies of the fauna..


The left alley glows
With kaleidoscopic yarrows
But alongside stand insects
Of myriad power prospects..


Mind does the P n C
With each lane in the see
Taking the left first
Then a sudden shift to right..


The creature leers, 
Scoffs and jeers
At the roller coaster 
Plight of my mind...


A fork in the lane
A dilemma in the mind
Left or Right
Where is the flight..?
