-----------------

Traveling
alone
indentured
down the river
of time

The current
building
and pushing
me
beyond myself

My oars
are traded
for one last
look
around the bend

The anchor
buried
in tidal sands
of lost
belief

My compass
melted
to pay the
toll
of fates arrival

With rudder
steady
as blind
I rush
— into the falls
